I participated in the Artsburg in Clarksburg on July 16. What a great way to celebrate our art and craft community with fellow artists in the area! Thanks to Loft Gallery to allow me to use their gallery front to display my work. There were quite a few people walking around stopping at each artist’s booth. It was a very good experience for me to actually chat with many of them who stopped by to see my work and hear what they thought of them. Read More
They say leave only footprints, but I feel like I left behind more than my footprints in this place; a little bit of my soul. Little did I know from the moment I glanced at the portraits of the now-gone dwellers, I was finding myself getting emotionally attached to them.

A woman lived with him, says the bedroom wall papered with lilacs and the kitchen shelves covered with oilcloth, and they had a child, says the sandbox made from a tractor tire. Money was scarce, say the jars of plum preserves and canned tomatoes sealed in the cellar hole. And the winters cold, say the rags in the window frames. It was lonely here, says the narrow country road. Something went wrong, says the empty house in the weed-choked yard.
