The group show “Wild and Free” at the Gail Keenan Art Center, a part of Coast Episcopal School in Pass Christian, closes on this Friday, Sept 11th, reception from 4-6pm. It’s a fun selection of artists’ work, all analog art - a change for me. I won’t make it to the closing but if you go, send me a pic! So great to meet all the artists, Thanks y’all and to @annmaddenphotography for her work putting us together! . . @gailkeenanartcenter #jacquardproducts

Sharing this reel showing the development of 2100 Leon C. Simon over the past 5 years - The meadow / rain garden has been a source of joy for me and hopefully for others. It’s been a way to experience the seasons and their effects, a reminder that hot drought summers (that almost made me give it up, 2023?), eventually give way to wetter times and rejuvenation, and that plants have been around much longer than us and have a lot of tricks up their stems. Thank you to @nolamosquito, @civicstudio.coop @npigno and everyone who has helped with this act of collective effervescence, a collaboration between nature, people and the elements. And thanks to the plants. And the bugs and the birds. 59 species of biota are recorded on iNaturalist, visit our project there. Overall, the site is much more biodiverse than it was 5 yrs ago and has shared much beauty! FYI Meadow maintenance this Friday 5-7!

Hi friends, I have new work up this Friday, August 14th, 5-7pm at the Gail Keenan Art Center in Pass Christian, 5065 Espy Avenue. As some of you know, I've spent alot of time in Bay St. Louis this past year, so I'm trying to make some community connections. I've indulged myself, being off the computer for a while and messing with the cyanotype process, and a few are getting a test run in this show. One piece I made with Lee Dieggard on a trip to a big ditch! I'll post pictures after the opening. Also in the show: Jennifer Shaw @jenshaw_nola Church Going Mule @churchgoinmule Michelle Allee @michelle.allee Bunny Lane @bunnylanetaxidermy Jessie Zenor @theferalsouth Thanks to the show organizer: @annmaddenphotography also, Flow Tribe will be at the @bslltheatre at 8pm- you could make a night of it. pictured: detail of "Roseau Cane along the Rigolets"
