It has been an exciting March! Last month I was chosen to participate in the Art On 30th gallery event, “50 to Watch”. Only 50 artists were chosen from a wide range of artistic abilities that included painting, sculpture, fiber, & photography.
Also, a full-color booklet was published containing chosen artwork of each artist and sent to 1500 galleries nationwide! What an honor!
The Recycled Art & Fashion Show in Temecula at the Monte de Oro Winery was a great success! Many wonderful creations were presented including my First Place Award winner, “Allons-y” from their previous event in 2016 and my new creation, “Order’s Up!”. “Allons-y” was made with outdated atlas pages and worn by Megan Halsey. “Order’s Up!” was constructed of recycled coffee filters, worn by Taylor Miller.
The Recycled Art & Fashion Show presents original, eco-friendly art and fashion from arts professionals and college and high school students within the community. It promotes innovative re-purposing of consumer waste and raises environmental awareness with an exciting runway event and visual art display. Proceeds support Mt. San Jacinto College student scholarships and student/community events.
