Artist statement: “I paint the expanse of the West. The subject of my work is as much the act of painting outdoors as it is the landscape depicted. Painting on large-scale canvas, entirely outdoors and immersed in the elements, feels like the X-sport of landscape painting. I only paint outside and enjoy the adventure of dragging huge canvases into the landscape and working through changing light, wind, and the occasional rattlesnake. The paintings are completed over many sessions; I mark the spot where I stand exactly and return at the same time every day to record the beauty of a specific place. Because I paint outside, every painting has a story.” Hazelton Peaks, 2011, oil on canvas, 44 x 60 inches.

  • Social Media and Managing Your Band's Online Presence
    SOCIAL MEDIA AND MANAGING YOUR BAND’S ONLINE PRESENCE OVERVIEW The clear fact of the matter is that metrics for band success based on their Social Media presence have not yet been determined. What have been determined are two major points: 1 – The music industry is in a digital age, where its products are freely traded and musicians are generally tight on money, and 2 – Traditional marketers have embraced Social Media Marketing as a valid, important and necessary aspect of their strategies. More and more companies are being built on this fact every day – agencies like BzzAgent and House Party. That being said, the relationship seems inherent – musicians should take advantage of the free tools to broaden their reach, find the fans that will love them for who they are, and to deliver their products. AS A MUSICIAN AT AN EARLY POINT IN YOUR CAREER, YOU NEED SOCIAL MEDIA AND SOCIAL MEDIA MARKETING TO: • Establish your identity and take control of the message you want to send o Don’t look at your twitter account as “another profile you need to maintain” – if thought about in a strategic and organized manner, this can be a simple and genuine outlet that needs little effort of maintenance. • Build and maintain relationships o With other musicians, fans, local spots, venues, managers, industry connections • Listen and understand your demographic • Continue to learn about trends that may apply to you • Cultivate ideas • Collaborate with those who listen to you and want to help you SOME ADDITIONAL POINTS AS TO WHY YOU CAN’T IGNORE IT: • It’s a free outlet, and let’s be real.

She says she has always been seduced by color and wools that provide a pleasant, tactile sensation. So, four years ago, when she learned the basics of armature construction and coupled it with needle felting (aka dry felting) with the luxurious wool from a friend’s flock, it was a marriage made in heaven. Her first creations were birds which took on their own quirky personalities as they emerged from the wool. Her creative juices being stirred, other more life-like animals began to join the flock.
