What is inspiring me today...

Nests. I've been admiring these two homes now that the trees are bare. They look like they'll keep their owners warm for the cold Chicago winter that's to come soon enough.

At the Expo

I wasn't able to make it to the opening of the show this Friday but James, Savannah and I went on Sunday to check it out. I've posted a picture of my framed pieces (above) at the show and all of the matted pieces are in that bin below (mixed with a number of other artists's work). There are some really cool things this year - I'm tempted to go back and do some holiday shopping!

If you happen to be in the Chicago area in the next month, my work will be at the Evanston Art Center's Winter Expo 2009. Located at The Evanston Art Center, 2603 Sheridan Road, Evanston, IL 60201 USA You can find out more about the center and the show at: http://www.evanstonartcenter.org/
Last years show was filled with wonderful work made by artists from all over the Chicago area. There was some really interesting ceramic tile work, beautiful jewlery, mini chairs and other neat things.

I'm very excited to be in the Winter Expo for the 2nd year in a row. I drew 15 new pieces for the event which you can see on my facebook fan page. Anything that is not sold during the show will go up in my Etsy shop on January 1, 2010.
