52 Weeks, 52 Works Calendar for 2015

I’m very pleased that my collage, “In The Garden“, has been published in this year’s calendar called “52 Weeks, 52 Works”!

The full-color desk calendar is published by Academy Graphic Communication and features artwork by Northeast Ohio artists. Each week has an artwork on one page then the days of the week on the opposite page with plenty of room to write. The artwork choices range from traditional paintings to abstract works to sculpture to jewelry. It’s really lovely!

This year, my piece is posted in Week 16: April 12-18.

2nd Friday Art Hops Continue in 2015

Our first hop of 2015 is April 10 from 5-8pm at locations all around Hudson.

Join us for “Art For A Cause”, when our visitors will be able to create small suncatcher-type pieces that will be assembled into a larger sculpture and put on display in the window of Hudson Fine Art & Framing the next day. It’s all part of a benefit for the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society.
