Handmade Market

Sunday, May 10, 2009

I have a pretty busy exhibition schedule this summer and it all kicked off yesterday at the New Deal Handmade Market, an event sponsored by Edge of Urge to benefit the Dreams Center for Arts Education. I was excited to be a part of such a good cause and was also very inspired by all of the incredibly talented artists who participated. I also got to debut my leather wings (see photos of my booth below). For those of you who didn't get a chance to come to the market, you will soon be able to purchase my masks at my Etsy shop online.
So, as for the rest of the summer, I'll be showing my work at the following locations:
