The Artist

After taking many years off of self-creating to work with other artists as a gallerist, curator, dealer, and friend, I decided to get back into making art when, by accident, one of my artists' work had gotten held up in customs and could not make it to the art fair in time. I had one empty wall that I needed to fill within several hours and quickly decided to put my new Book Pile Series on the wall, to an overwhelmingly positive response from the audience.  It inspired me to continue to create and speak my voice. I'm back.
