Our tour of the Kendrick Arboretum was such a great jumping-off point for me.  I was inspired and excited as I left there with new knowledge of some of Wyoming’s native trees.  

We made our way from Sheridan, Wyoming to Dayton where we would check into the Tongue River Artist in Residency Program for two weeks. 

I anticipated grand results through eco printing with new plant materials in this very different environment.  I knew the climate, elevation, amount of rainfall and access to water would be very different from my surroundings in Tennessee.  I expected different results just because of the difference in the environment and looked forward to the experiments.

Hey!  I'm so glad you stopped by!  Let me catch you up on what's been going on. 

I am a fiber artist and I specialize in fine art images made from plant materials using\the eco print process.  My husband and I have been on a road trip to Dayton, Wyoming where I spent two weeks at the Tongue River Artist in Residency program. Two weeks of blissful art creation using native western plant materials in my eco printing while under the influence of the culture and beauty of the land in this beautiful area. I had a gallery space to share my art with the community and was given the opportunity to deliver a presentation and share the story of my work with the local community.  It was an inspirational adventure that allowed me to immerse myself in my work and experiment to my heart's content.

Are we there yet?

I am honored and proud to announce that I have been accepted to the Tongue River Artist Residency in Dayton, Wyoming!

I look forward to going to the Cowboy state for two weeks to experience the beauty and magnificence of the Bighorn Mountains.  The beautiful town of Dayton (population ~1000) will be a fantastic opportunity for me to step away from the day-to-day here at home and immerse myself in the beauty of northern Wyoming.

Sharing good vibes only!
