Liminal Spaces and Thresholds at the Cornell Complex... I have a little piece (2nd from the left) in this cool little small works show.

We had the most beautiful hike today at Wildcat Glades in Joplin. I had only hiked a portion of it before, and I didn't realize there were cliffs on the other side. Super gorgeous place to spend a Sunday.

We'll have to bring the paddleboard back here next time

I have a show at Club 609, Navigation. It's actually kind of a full circle moment... my first solo show was here at Club 609 back in 2013. It's an honor to return 13 years later. The show will be up through October and November.

I spent my 39th birthday at the reception for "Those Who Can... Teach: The Work of Art Educators" at Spiva Center for the Arts in Joplin. It feels good to be middle aged.

Hypnagogic Macrosomatognosia - my piece in the JRAC exhibit, What Dreams May Come, at MSSU

My favorite piece in the show, Looking Over or Overlooking, by Jessie McCormick

My absolute favorite meal in the 4-state area, the Rainbow Roll from Tokyo Japanese Steak and Sushi. It's so good. Every time.

 

I received "Best Adherence to Theme" at JRAC's show at Spiva, Upon Closer Inspection. I was home sick with a cold so I couldn't make it to the reception, but it was a nice surprise.

 

My show, Paths, at Urban Art Gallery. I was fortunate to sell half of the originals in this show. Really nice to move some pieces along.
