Had a wonderful time at the Artists Showcase and Home Tour on Thursday. It was a great reminder of the new "Im worth it" path I've taken. I really feel like the artists were well taken care of and promoted and enjoyed the event very much. Here was my little curated space:
All the artists got their own little spaces to create and show in this AMAZING house. I had lots of great windows and light in my space.
Even though my endometriosis pains were popping in intermittently- I stood and smiled and chatted with visitors and fellow artists.
These three were my largest pieces there and looked great on the spacious walls.
The food was IMPECCABLE...the cake makers made these elegant cakeballs in various flavors and used each of the artists works to decorate the tops. I have arrived! My art is edible!
There was a delicious sampling of various wines from the Boisset collection including a fabulous Rosé that was the talk of the evening.
The catering was a work of art in itself- so many little elegant bites! My favorite was a goat cheese rolled in a nut blend with a secret little grape hidden inside it. The flavors combined- perfection.
Art filled all the downstairs rooms and there was a constant stream of guests to and fro. I enjoyed chatting with all the friendly artists and guests and trading business cards.

Some of my friends and supporters showed up! Hi Billy Coleman!
"Kilauea" sold before the night was over.
It was a great ending to a great month which saw me starting it by traveling to Idaho for a wonderful project, returning to projects in full swing and fitting in a little personal work and this showing -which made me feel like my artistic skills have been very valued this month. Am I getting spoiled? I don't want to work with people who don't appreciate me anymore. And I pretty much refuse to. 😂 This is the new way and dammit I LIKE IT.
Big shout out to Marisol Beltran of Asta La Luna for plugging some of the artists in for this showcase and showing the love. That's what makes great community! You can support her lovely business and beautifully made agate glassware/accessories here:
