New Paintings!

It has been quite a while since I have posted and a lot of things have been happening! I am studying in an MFA program now that allows me to make work in my home studio as well as at the Fine Arts Work Center in Provincetown twice yearly. This past fall, I was able to spend a month painting in a wonderful studio there with a great group of MFA candidates.

May at the Provincetown Fine Arts Work Center

I am in my second month-long residency at the Provincetown Fine Arts Work Center. I arrived in the rain on Tuesday night and set up my studio along with 20 other MFA students in the MassArts Low-Residency program. I spent the last two days in studio reviews and critiques and saw some amzing work and wonderful transformations in artist's work since the Fall residency. Just wanted to take a minute to post some photoes here of the work center, our crits and some of my new paintings.
