news and updates from your friendly purple haired artist

I've had purple in my hair for over a year now, and when I got my most recent haircut I had a little hot pink thrown in too.
's true! :)

I used to dye my hair eggplant purple when I was in my late teens and early twenties. Thought I'd resurrect it as I enter my forties. Why not?

Anyway, as my dear friend Kim would say, "enough about my hair!"

There have been a few changes in open studio plans for the summer. I am SO BUSY, (thank you all, hooray!) that I have made the decision to wait until October and November for my Open Studios.

My UC Ringmaster watercolor/ink portrait will be hanging at the University of Connecticut horse barn VERY soon, and you will be able to see it firsthand. I may also borrow it back for an Open Studio day in the fall.

I love being busy, and I have so many things cookin' right now (the book, card designs, charity events, open houses, lino prints, matting and framing, gasp gasp). Thank you to everyone for their support, and see you at an Open Studio very soon!
