I've been as busy as a tapestry weaver putting together an exhibit!


I have a small exhibit through this month (March) at a local wine bar/gallery. The pieces in this exhibit are mostly small, and many have never been seen outside my studio. I loved pulling these little tapestries out of hiding, mounting and framing them, and bringing them into the light of day! They have been clamoring to be seen for such a long while!


In addition to the more than a dozen small tapestries, I have hung a few of the Calendar Tapestries and a couple of large tapestries, just for contrast.


The building this exhibit is in was built as a blacksmith shop in 1905. It is downtown here in Grand Junction, on a street that was once old bars and shoe repair shops, but is now Brew Pubs, this wine bar and gourmet shop, and the local (Colorado Mesa University) Art Gallery, next door.


There will be a First Friday Artist's Reception this coming Friday evening. First Fridays are hosted by all the local galleries, with art lovers going from one to the next. The weather is supposed to be glorious, and the dreaded virus has not yet hit Colorado (all fingers crossed for it to stay away completely!)  So, if you are in the area, come see me... and a bit of my work!
