What is LALA? Why it’s landscapes, abstract landscapes, and abstracts, of course. When Kyla Bourgh of Atelier 8.18 called for show proposals last year, I had more ideas than I could write up! I sent three concepts, hoping to find other artists thinking along the same lines. The idea Kyla settled on couldn’t have been a better fit, and I’m thrilled to be part of it, showing with Golya Mirderikvand, Amanda Wood, and Shelley Wales.

Here are the pieces Kyla requested from me, to fit the theme.

Some of these pieces were new to the printing process, and I was excited to see them in physical form. To get them ready, I’m thankful for the tremendous support from Estrella Lucero of Framing by Estrella, in the Paneficio studios.

Here’s how the pieces look in the space.

What a fabulous venue and exhibition! I’m thrilled to report, in addition to all the great conversation and connections over art, that between two journeys went home with collectors!
