my work in two local shops in Bethesda

Hi friends - I have some exciting news. You may have already heard me announce this if you follow me on IG or Facebook. I'm just so pleased that I have to say it again! My art is now on display at TWO beautifully curated shops in Bethesda, MD: one of my long-time favorites Red Orchard and it's new sister pop-up shop Provisions. I am thrilled with this partnership.

Small Studies at Red Orchard:

Here are some of the small 8x10 paintings that are on display and for sale at one of my absolute favorite shops in the DC metro area, Red Orchard (@redorchardshop).

If you read my previous post or follow me on Instagram you'll know that I've been embracing the practice of making a quick color studies before diving into bigger paintings. It’s like a little warm up that satisfies my impulsive need to get paint on canvas while also slowing down the overall process a bit so I can approach a new work with well thought out color and compositional choices.

So many reasons that I love these and I'm so glad that I now have a venue to share them.

And they look good together in these cute little frames. Here's a shot from my studio as I was framing several for the shop.
