Design Your Own Dress



Here are some scans of one of the dresses I designed at the recent Design Your Own Little Black Dress event.  This dress measures 10" high and incorporates sticker collage on front and back.  No longer so much a "little black dress" but totally something I'd wear...

I will be changing out my first show at Urban Eats and displaying different selections from among my montages on Wednesday, May 7, so be sure to check out the show before then if you want to see the current groupings.

The next selection will officially debut with the brunch on Mother's Day and an impromptu style show and photo opportunity - more information to come!

Starbucks Show




The highlights show at Starbucks is currently on display.  This show features some montages from the recent Northern Arts Council exhibit since many who had hoped to come for the closing reception were unable to do so due to the inclimate weather.

Although there will be no formal reception for this show, I'd be more than happy to meet anyone for coffee sometime while I'm around - we'll make a date!

On to Starbucks!


The next stop on the Little Black Dress traveling exhibit is Starbucks in University City in February & March.  This show features highlighted montages from various shoots.  There won't be a formal reception so feel free to drop by whenever and check it out.  And I'll gladly meet you for a cup of coffee; just shoot me an email and we'll make a coffee date.
