Inspired by a chair keenly upholstered by Spruce in Amy Butler fabric. The chair is admired by an eastern bluebird, a scarlet tanager, and two indigo buntings (my all-time favorite bird).
------------NUTSHELL BIO--------------- I earned my BFA from the Art Academy of Cincinnati in 1999 and
participated in the New York Studio Program through Parsons. I've
schlepped a backpacker's easel across Europe trying to connect to my
"painter ancestors"--they weren't kidding about the light in south of
France. And if I ever win an Oscar for painting I will thank Vermeer,
Kahlo, Hopper, Richter and Barney, to name just a few.
