I have been juried into the 2009 Bellevue ArtsFair (the one in the Bellevue Square parking garage). I’ll be there from July 24th – 26th with lots of new work to show you!

This year, 940 artists applied for 320 spots, so I’m very happy to be a part of the show. I hope to see you there!

I just found out I had a piece accepted in the Larson Gallery’s 36th National Juried Photo Exhibition. The exhibition takes place from April 3 through May 2, 2009. The Larson Gallery is located in Yakima, Washington. The accepted piece was Forest for the Trees, one of my ice abstracts.

Ice Abstracts

Helen — Fri, 13 Feb 2009 23:21:55 +0000

I’ve been working on a new series of pictures. I’m usually not too motivated to shoot in the winter, but this winter has been much colder and drier than usual. I’ve been enjoying getting out with my macro lens and exploring the ice.

Branching out – my first juried watercolor show!

Helen — Sun, 04 Jan 2009 03:08:50 +0000

One of my watercolor paintings was juried into a watercolor show today. University Unitarian Church is having an exhibit comprised of the work of Molly Hashimoto and her students. I painted a raven I photographed in Banff, Alberta. I was thrilled when it got juried in. The show opens tomorrow and runs through January 29th. Although there is no particular theme, most of the work is landscapes or animals. There are about 20 artists in the show, and the paintings are amazing.

Come by on 1/4 between 1-3pm and see great art, eat food, drink wine, and listen to live classical music. Should be a great time!

Sunday Jan 4, 1-3pm
