Today was the last outdoor event I’ll be doing for the year. After this, it’s all indoor events until the weather gets better next year.

And wow was this one tough.

I’m not sure I’ll be doing this on in the future. It was weird from the beginning with no online application process, checks-only for application fees, and a lack of communication of acceptance and logistics until literally days before the event…

One vendor left halfway through setting up once she learned there were only two portable toilets for the entire five-block event.

But the day *really* soured around noon when 30+mph wind gusts started knocking over vendor displays. Many left early.

And I didn’t make a single sale for the last 2.5 hours. I was fortunate—my tent weights are massive. But I still had to hold it down most of the afternoon. None of our stuff went flying across the street like other vendors had to deal with.

It was a tough day. My body aches. I think I will sleep very hard tonight.

Heading out to volunteer as a docent at the Redwood Art Association’s member-run gallery today. I get to sit behind a desk and greet people as they come in to look, catalog sales, and answer the phone. They have an ongoing and developing plein aire exhibit happening that I’m excited to browse!

I also get to sit and work on my artwork, but I think I’ll use part of the day to read up on my favorite art-heroes of the moment: the Glasgow Four. I have a book about them which I’ve been enjoying.

It’ll be a nice day of escape/paying-it-forward/art joy/reading. I think with all the crap happening in the world right now my mental health needs this day.

Nope. I'm not into high culture. I didn't spend ten years researching religions to be deep on my free time.

Rome, summer 2025




Finally sharing some work online again 🌿 After three months on the road, I’m back in Rome. In that time, I took part in 2 artist residencies, joined 4 exhibitions, and traveled entirely by train or hitchhiking — from Rome to Frisia, Denmark, and finishing in Latvia.

I’m not very active on socials these days, but a website update will come soon(ish) — along with news about 2 upcoming exhibitions.
Thanks everyone for your patience and support ✨
