“Letting go of Blue’, one of the many pieces that I’m making for my show at Artistry, in June 2018. Beautifully and eloquently captured by photographer Jessica Teigen-Mattson.

I will be back at the Grain Belt Bottling House for Art-A-Whirl, showing and selling my art! Started setting up today – I have a beautiful spot on the main floor, right when you come in. Minneapolis Ballet Dancers and Borealis Dance (see above picture from last years performance) will perform again throughout the weekend – worth seeing on their own account. Would be great to see you there!

It is one thing to make art. It’s another thing to find a photographer who resonates with it well enough to capture its essence. I was lucky enough to secure Jessica Teigen Mattson’s time to take pictures of my new work! Just like Stephanie Pearo Dunn had previously done, Jessica amplified the expression and meaning of my work.

Three days spent at Grain Belt Bottling House for the 2016 NE Art-A-Whirl, showing my pieces, sharing what they mean with kind listeners, watching people’s facial expressions relax, change and shift as they walked through the building, watching the hourly performance of the beautiful Borealis dance group. Bookended by Olympic style schlepping of pedestals and sculptures to and fro, it was physically and mentally demanding, exhausting, but also so rewarding. My sculpture set ‘Victorian Ghosts’ found a new home, and another sculpture will do so today. Thanks so much again to everyone who stopped by, chatted, listened, shared their own stories, and signed up for my mailing list. I will definitely be back at Art-A-Whirl next year. Also, now is the time to talk to me about a discount – I am offering most of my Art-A-Whirl sculptures for about $700

I am still processing and relishing my impressions from the wonderful opening party for my joined show at Gallery 360 with Painter Kei Gratton on Saturday night. I feel so grateful to all the friends and supporters, old and new, who took the time to come out, look at the art and listen to the stories surrounding my pieces. Thanks so much again to each and everyone of you to be there with me during this big night, my first in the main room. The evening’s delight was crowned by the sale of my piece ‘Bloom’! Thanks so much to the buyer – I can’t even tell you how much this means to me.  To have one of my pieces be part of somebody else’s life is such a wonderful thought! The show will run through May 29, see the link to the event here:

The company Vida, a clothing manufacturer from San Francisco who prints original fine art on high quality clothing items, has approached me about joining their community of world wide artists, and have items like these manufactured for sale with my art on them! I’m really excited about how well my pieces look on a silk-cashmere blend scarf, like the one below! Check out my whole collection at:

Working hard on my pieces for my upcoming show at Gallery360
on April 16th! Be prepared for a a larger scale – I am so pleased to
have taken this important step.
Talented and creative photographer Stephanie Pearo Dunn

My piece ‘Old Soul’ made it into Minnesota Monthly’s ‘Best New Art 2016’ feature!
It is part of their January 2016 issue, and available at news stands now. I had to wait a while for news on this, and was only the more pleasantly shocked to hear that I had made it in! This definitely adds another layer of cheer to my holiday season!
