Antidote to the heat: the Oregon coast, where we went from 96 to 64 in under an hour. PHEW! But today we zoomed back in to pick up my work from the framer’s and hang the show down at Project Space…and the curator did most of the work… The work is two series of mono-print […]

Wedding Countdown…5 more days…
