After Graduation

I owe much thanks for all of you that contacted me to say, “Congratulations.”

I mostly moved out of the college’s studio and I rented a studio downtown. I guess that might be old news.

The last few days I was reading and catching up on what is happening on the Web 2.0, blogosphere, Bubble 1.0 vs. Bubble 2.0. Learned terms such as the long tail. I’ve learned about some incredible sites. Digg, Geek Entertainment TV as well as I have enjoyed reading Flock Feeds . One of the most helpful sites was Tim ORielly’s site — O’Reilly: What Is Web 2.0.? If you haven’t checked out the Flock Browser… you got to. It is a great web tool.

The next couple of days I will working on getting my portfolio together and online. Will posting the thesis shortly.

Thanks

I’m a Minneapolis-based artist working in watercolor, gouache, oil, drawing, and mixed media. After teaching art and design for many years, I returned to making art fully. These days, I spend my time drawing, painting, experimenting, and paying attention to what shows up. I often work small. My work moves between observation, memory, and imagination. Some pieces lean surreal. Some stay close to what is seen. What interests me is what begins to emerge when I stay with the work long enough. On my blog, you’ll find both my artwork and my reflections. I’ve come to see they are connected. What I learn in the studio often changes how I see my life, my relationships, and my community. In that way, art has become more than making objects — it has become a way of understanding and being in the world.

Hope you leave your thoughts.
