Pandemic Art Annex
Welcome to Pandemic Art Annex! We’re extending an invitation to everyone and anyone to submit one artwork that they have created during these last months of lockdown, social distancing, social justice reckoning and confusion—and perhaps some clarity as well. We’re hopeful that this interactive portion of Pandemic Art Lessons: A Women's Art Institute Online Initiative will broaden the discourse around what artists are thinking, feeling and doing. We will be posting new images each week until December 11, the end of our virtual exhibition.

I’m thrilled to be included in the 46th issue of UPPERCASE Magazine, published by Janine Vangool in Canada. The theme of the issue is creative uses of scraps, both paper and fabric, and my piece falls somewhere between. If you are not familiar with this publication, it’s completely ad-free and content comes from artists and subscribers all over the world. It’s beautifully edited, designed and printed 4 times a year–a true labor of love by Janine. It’s a treat to get in in the mail. Subscriptions here!

Printmaking mentorship program
Check out Highpoint Center for Printmaking next time you are in Minneapolis. They are a non-profit doing great work bringing traditional and contemporary methods of fine art printmaking to students, professional artists, collectors and the public. This show featured student work made by a select group of high schoolers who were accepted into the Access/Print teen mentor program. Students participate in a semester’s worth of printmaking classes taught by professional artists that culminate in a group exhibition in the main gallery.
