First Panels + Fabric from Zero Landfill Day


The first panels are officially underway.

I’m currently working with fabric samples I collected last year through Zero Landfill Day at Wunderkammer Company.

Some of the panels use the fabric just as it is, mounted directly onto the surface. Others begin to shift as I add encaustic and additional materials, letting the wax interact with the fibers in unexpected ways. I love how the fabric holds its own, but also how it changes when layered—becoming something new without losing its original character.

More soon.

It was great to be at GROW WIWO Conference in Fort Wayne yesterday! I had the opportunity to share Weave of Life Project with attendees in a hands-on way—inviting people to slow down and create their own small pieces. A number of those pieces will be incorporated into the larger installation, which makes the work even more meaningful.There’s something powerful about creating, especially in the middle of a busy day. It naturally reduces stress, helps you reset, and allows you to absorb more of...

The studio is in transition once again. As part of preparing our current house to be listed, I’ll be moving out of my current studio setup and into a temporary workspace for the next little while. The new studio in the new house isn’t quite ready yet, so I’ll be creating a smaller, more simplified setup in my apartment while renovations continue. It’s not the ideal or final space—but it’s a space to keep going. There may be a short pause as everything gets packed up and moved, but my...
