A look inside the Firelight Collection, my ongoing exhibit of wood and resin pyrography work. Created with walnut, pecan, aspen, and mesquite, each piece shifts with the light through fire, resin, shimmer pigments, and holographic film. This collection moves from earthy warmth into bright dimensional shimmer.
A new selection of my resin and alcohol ink pieces on cradled wood panel is now on view at Artworks Gallery on West Sixth Street. This group exhibition features artists whose work brings texture, depth, and a fresh perspective. Come experience the full collection in person.
Chrysalis ATX Studio will be part of the Austin Studio Tour 2025, hosted by Almost Real Things. Join me November 8–9, 12–6pm, for an open house with larger mixed-media works and a special collection of smaller pieces created just for the tour.
