Working the past two weeks with intern Ivana Gatica has been a great experience- for both of us.

We accomplished a lot together and had a great time in the studio, by the pond, in front of the computer or out and about at art and teaching venues.

Ivana also wrote a blog post about our first week together and made this video about the peace and beauty of my back yard koi pond and gardens.

Ivana graduates from Sanford High School this week but I’m not letting her go that easily. She will be at my opening on on Friday, June 5, 2015 from 5-8 pm at Blue Streak Gallery in Wilmington, DE.

Hope you can join us.
