See it, back there on the wall in the corner of the studio? That’s the next piece in my LineScape series. I started it last year and am now circling my way back toward reconnecting with it with plans of finishing it for a rapidly approaching exhibit that opens in May.

As the temperature drops below zero and the snow gently falls on this, the night before the last of 2014, I’m so grateful for my bright warm home and studio, and all the memories of a really big year.

Saturday was all about the eco-dyeing and printing and it was Hot. I wrapped and cooked 11 bundles, fabrics I’ll use to make some wall pieces for my upcoming show “Must Love Art”.
As the sun was going down, I felt like a kid that had been playing in the dirt […]
More work in progress – a couple of new large textile paintings, a continuation of my LineScape Series.
LineScapes #30 and #31 in progress
With 3 art shows coming up within the next 3 months, and high potential for a 4th one later this fall, I’ve got good incentive to get a bunch […]
In an earlier post, I said I view my results from the ACC Baltimore show as a success even though my sales didn’t cover my costs of doing the show.
My studio, cleaned up and ready for a gallery visit.
My goals for exhibiting at ACC Baltimore (and St. Paul) include not only […]
Black and White stripes seem to be nature’s best defense against blood-sucking insects. At least that’s what this national geographic article says – zebras’ stripes confuse and scramble the vision of horseflies, protecting them from those nasty suckers.

Recuperative studio time. Quiet reflection, drawing marks on the cloth with wet paste, watching the image disappear as the paste dries in the sun, then magically re-appear with the steam. The wind took a break for a day. The sun was warm, the cloth cooperative, giving up it’s color without too much fight.

Our 4th ever annual Hanna-Gilhooly Holiday Open House was another big fun festive event with a steady stream of visitors throughout the day and into the night. The cherry on top was that almost all of my students from my Oct. Eco-Dye Playshop came by and each brought samples of their wonderful dyed fabric results […]
This Saturday, December 7th from 12-7pm, all snowy roads lead to our Hanna-Gilhooly Holiday Open House….
Our home is our gallery and studio spaces combined. We’re bustling about getting our works arranged just so….
I’ll have several new textile paintings & Hanna-Dyed pillows and scarves….

Being a bit on the introvert side of the continuum, it takes me awhile to recover from a 2 day/14 hour long weekend open studio event. I’m thrilled that we had nearly 200 people come see our studios, and even happier that I was able to have some great conversations with so many visitors. Seems […]
