Nordic Center September 2021

As a personal challenge, after retiring from teaching art for over 30 years, I wanted to see if I could illustrate a book – could I draw people and places consistently throughout the story! I had never eaten a Swedish Princess Cake until the summer of 2019 and it seemed a fun opportunity to try. There are a lot of steps involved. It seemed as good a challenge as any to try and depict making the Swedish Princess Cake and publish an illustrated recipe book!
Great fun to do – making the cake and eating it too! I hope everyone enjoys the work. Stay well!!

There is an opening and limited in person galley hours available. In addition, the exhibition and a video (artist discussion) will be available on line! With concerns due to Covid/Delta growing the online option is a wonderful way to see the work!

So It Goes, Issue 9

Thrilled to be a part of the collective voices in this year’s “So It Goes” Issue 9, the Literary Journal of the Kurt Vonnegut Museum and Library.

This years journal celebrates civic engagement. Four of the “Essential Worker Portraits” are featured.

“So It Goes” is designed to bring together work from veterans and civilians, established authors and virtual unknowns, high school students and nonagenarians. “Unstuck in time”. True to Vonnegut it is about kindness, common decency, and free expression as well as passion for social justice, environmentalism, and peace.
