I am trying to get back into blogging regularly, but my weekends have become busier! I may have to find time during the week to do more blogging. Last weekend I went to the Cape to drop off artwork at an upcoming show in North Truro and Provincetown. I am so excited to be exhibiting…
Interview with Meghan Widger, textile and fiber artist In the past 6 months I had the pleasure of working on a collaboration with another artist. While I work with other people consistently in my visual marketing career, I never thought to work with others in my personal artwork. I’ve been in a collaborative mood lately,…
Well, I know it’s been awhile since I posted here. And a good reason for that. End of March I took up a seasonal position at Yankee Candle and the month of April flew by. I had a blast working at Yankee Candle and meeting everyone in the department that I worked in. I never…
Tomorrow, I’ll be starting a new chapter in my life. I accepted a seasonal job offer at Yankee Candle in South Deerfield, MA. I’ll also be rooming with an artist friend of mine in Northampton which I am super excited about. I’ve been wanting to explore Northampton more since I found out about it when…
Last summer I participated in the Hyarts Artist Shanty program in Hyannis, MA. Since then I have maximized my experience by writing down inspiration, tidbits and things people have said to me, that came to my mind and random things. I usually do this with action-packed experiences because if I have a lot on my…

I recently had the fun experience of learning how to ship artwork over to Paris. I had a similar experience in 2014 when I shipped a print over to Venice for the Arte Laguna Prize. However, that contest was a bit different as they didn’t give me the luxury of time that this curator has…
I recently left a job opportunity in close proximity to me. It was one of those opportunities that sounded really promising but when it came to do the work itself, everything changed.
