A New Show, A New Direction

There is always a lull between challenging projects that are as worthwhile as they are exhausting. In the spring of 2008 I prepared for my graduate certificate show at Hood College, and it was a time of growth and experimentation. All that work culminated in an excellent show with more than 50% of the show selling, and I couldn't have been happier.

After the show, however, I had to put serious ceramic sculpture on hold and turn my efforts to a new project: my wedding (which took place last month!). I quickly learned that I had no interest nor talent in event planning of that style, but I managed to get through it with the help of a wonderful (future, at the time) mother-in-law. The wedding was more than I'd dreamed :] but I am ready to focus on ceramics again.

My friend from Hood College who held her show at the same time as mine, Callie Badorrek, has arranged for the two of us to have a show together again. This time we will share a theme as well as marketing materials, which will make everything more fun! We picked out a gallery space on Market Street in historic Frederick, Maryland, and booked it for the first two weekends of December 2009.

Let the preparation begin!
