Artascope Studios Annual Holiday Show and Sale

'Tis the Season for holiday shopping and this show will definitely not disappoint! This is my third year participating in the Artascope Holiday Show and Sale. It holds special significance for me as I step down from my stewarding duties at Artascope to pursue my business full time in conjunction with working with my husband, Greg, on our design-build company, Matrix Construction. I am looking at staying on as a teacher at Artascope, but will miss my weekly blogging and other interactions at this fantastic art center. Now back to the show....

Our opening is this Friday night, Dec 12th, from 4-8pm. There will be wine and goodies to share as you peruse the goods and start making your list of items to purchase. I am a big believer in buying local and very grateful to be a part of another great local artist event. The show is up from this Friday through Dec 23rd. We are open daily from 9am-7pm. Christmas Eve, you can shop from 10-2pm for any last minute treasures. So come join the fun, share a drink and say hello! I will be there all night Friday! Cheers everyone!

MECA/SEA Show this Weekend-New Work

It's finally here! The MECA/SEA Holiday Art Show starts this Friday from 6-9pm....an evening of shopping not to be missed. Liz and I will be in the cafeteria along the window, so we'll have a very pretty view. Please stop by and check out all our wares. The show continues for a full day on Saturday from 10am-6pm and we will be there again on Sunday from 11am-4pm. I hope to see you all there celebrating the season and seeing what the creative community of Portland has been up to....

I am excited to be showing some of my new fresh water pearl jewelry. I am preparing for the Savvy Women Wedding Source Wedding Expo that will be happening on Sunday Jan 11th, 2009, but that just feels too far away! I have been really enjoying playing with pearls. Here is one of my new designs.....just to entice you a bit.
