This is the view out of one of my windows in my studio. It's my first autumn in this work space and I find myself looking at this little tree a lot during my breaks. The color is so inspiring and I am reminded that change is such part of life.

Often I'm surrounded by endless scraps of paper on my studio table and once in a while something really catches my eye in a way that makes me stop and reflect. This is one of those moments!

Beauty and inspiration can be found all around us, even in a box of vintage album covers sitting on my studio floor!

The commission piece for upstate is now completed and I am beginning to focus on my next upcoming show, scheduled for late January of 2012. I'm currently working on a larger piece that is 30" x 30" and using a lot of new material that I found recently at a great secondhand store in Mount Vernon, NY.

An important part of the creative process for me has always been the actual searching for and collecting of collage materials, especially when I am beginning a new body of work. Recently I started incorporating old album covers into the mix and absolutely love the intense color they bring to my work.

This is what my studio looks like these days! I have been diligently working on a commission piece for a project with Metropolitan Gallery based out of Austin, TX.
