Hello friends! As the hot North Carolina summer days start to wind down, I thought I’d send out an update on what creative endeavors I have been up to. First of all, I’d like to thank Impulsive Creativity of Mebane, NC for featuring me as their August Artist-of-the-Month! This shop is a wonderful mix of all hand-crafted items in a sweet Southern downtown setting. Drop in and say hi and find some unique treasures and gifts! Read my brief interview here:

Shown: “Like a Boss” and “Bluejay in Spring cards, “Daffodils on Sunday Morning” 8×10″ print and “Bell Jar of Daisies” 5×7″ print.
Also, back in July, I spent the weekend at Spring Forth Farm, a cut-flower farm owned by my sister and her husband, Megan and Jonathan Leiss, for an artist’s retreat (with their beloved dog, Mr. Bingley, of course!). I worked on a commission for my colleague’s wife’s birthday present that resulted in my newest painting, “Birthday Peacock!” (With a pot of tea at hand, naturally!).
Working hard! Mr. Bingley “Birthday Peacock”
In August, I have re-stocked New Hope Market (Chapel Hill, NC) and Impulsive Creativity (Mebane, NC) with plenty of new cards, bookmarks, prints, and tags, plus my new “Birthday Peacock” cards. Of course, you can always order from my “Shop” page directly or through the Square site listed. I am always happy to ship to you!
Thank you for reading, and I hope you enjoy the rest of your summer!
