Recent Works.... Feeling a little spooky!

 These are some of the new linocuts I've finished recently - I love this time of year! A cute little sea cryptid, an unusual vampire bat, and the moon with a skull charm dangling from it...

Fall Event Schedule 2025

 It is officially Fall and the calendar is no less busy than it has been the first three quarters of this year. I am grateful for every opportunity to share my art with the community and appreciate the wonderful feedback I've received thus far!

This upcoming schedule includes some classes in addition to exhibits and markets, so consider trying printmaking yourself, it's fun! 

Tree Magic

Looking forward to a new event this coming weekend in the lakes area of Minnesota.  I have heard talk about Crow Wing County since moving here and am finally going to explore the area and spend some time in the woods.

To celebrate I've been making tree images inspired by the MN State Tree, Red Pines.  I do love a good conifer! I'm having fun exploring the themes of the region, lakes and rivers, grass, wind, sun... and how those can be interpreted visually without being too literal. Here are some of the pieces I made yesterday that I will be taking to the show this weekend.

  

 

 

 

Summer Update: SoMi

 So many art fairs and SoMi in South Minneapolis is my next event on August 2-3!

August will also take me to the North Woods Art and Book Fair in Hackensack, MN on August 9 which I am excited to explore. 

Here are a few of my latest creations, perfect for summer... but don't worry, if you're more of a fan of the spooky side of my work, I am deep into the creative process for Fall and Hauntizaar (which will be Sept. 27 in St. Pete!) So stay tune for more on that in the near future.

 

Updated Summer 2025 Event Schedule

Things are heating up in the Crafty Hag's art world and it isn't just the summer temperatures. 

Check out all of these upcoming events! I think I need to discuss the tendency to overbook myself with whoever is in charge haha....

 

Inspiration

 

Inspiration comes from many sources... missing a pet, a new plant, a surprise in the garden..

here are some of my latest things I've been working on. 

 

Sea Dragons

Lately I've been revisiting ocean inspirations and working on sea dragons and other aquatic oddities that are beautiful and fascinating...  very much enjoying the variety of finishes on these small block prints. I've also created large screen print versions which have a completely different feel to them. Will be exhibiting a selection during the spring art crawl in St. Paul and other upcoming events.
