Open Studios at Atelier One: Sept 30 & Oct 1, '17

So much has happened since I've posted here with any kind of regularity! Easier to keep up with me these days on Instagram or facebook... or come see me in Graton this weekend, as 20 of my studio building-mates celebrate 3o years in our historic building. Sat & Sun, Sept 30 & Oct 1, '17, 11-6, at 2860 Bowen St in Graton, or come visit by appointment by writing me at Lisabee@sonic.net (Be aware that Sunday is also Graton Day-- lots of festivities on the street, but you may need to detour around the block)

Some shows: current & upcoming

Just a quick update after a long absence from the blogosphere: this summer I worked on a project called 50/50: in which almost 70 artists created 50 small works in 50 days.
The show opens this evening in Pacifica at the Sanchez Art Center, and continues through September 28th.
