Far beyond anything I could have imagined
With deep gratitude, I thank everyone who joined me for my first “Gallery at Home” Open Studio. (June 12-14, 2026) In preparing for this event, my husband and I poured our heart, soul, and countless hours into creating a space to share my work.
What unfolded was far beyond anything I could have imagined. I was profoundly moved by the kindness, encouragement, and generosity shown by friends, family, and visitors who traveled from both near and far. Your presence filled our home with warmth, conversation, and a sense of community.
Thank you for your support, your patronage, and for making this inaugural event such a memorable experience. As I catch my breath and reflect on the joy of this weekend, I’ll begin dreaming about what the next gathering might become. Until then, please know how grateful I am for each and every one of you.
My To-Do list for this past week consisted of:
Repacking artwork left at the end of the open studio and reorganizing my storage area. I am happy to say I had a lot less to put away than I started with!
Shipping 12 paintings from the Estuary series to the William Ris Gallery on the North Fork of Long Island.
Packing up 5 Estuary paintings on paper for the upcoming “PaperWork” show at Perkins Center for the Arts in Collingswood, NJ.
