Paint with me! 2024 McFarland Community Festival
Taking a different approach to exhibiting here, as this is my hometown and I work with a LOT of kids here. I will be set up showing my prints, but let’s have some FUN too!
I will have art supplies ready and in abundance, so let’s paint!
8 x 8 canvases available, and myself and my dear Friend Jessica Roth will be here to help and collaborate. And speaking of collaboration, in addition to these individual canvases that you can take home your masterpiece, I will have one GIANT canvas that anyone can contribute to! Once finished, I plan on making prints available for sale and a portion of the proceeds will go towards a worthy cause, which will be announced when prints come available.
Agora Art Fair - 2024
I will be exhibiting with my fellow 14 South Artists this year at the Agora Art Fair. This fair has grown from a small gathering of Wisconsin artists into a vibrant yearly event that draws thousands of people to this unique location. With its classic architecture and stunning prairie landscape, the Agora (Greek for “gathering place”) provides the perfect setting for an outdoor art fair. Strolling through the exhibits amidst the natural beauty of South Central Wisconsin promises to be an experience you won’t soon forget.

I was so glad to be invited back to this wonderful event on the shores of Sister Bay. Last year the weather cooperated JUST enough to make it a pleasant time for all that came to visit and view the works of some awesome artists. If you want to have a great day trip and love art, come on up!
Art Fair Off the Square - 2024
Last year was my debut at this huge Mid-West Art Fair, exhibiting in the Emerging Artist section. This year, I will be at the Art Fair Off the Square in Madison, WI. This special section was created separate from the On the Square section, to showcase Wisconsin Artists exclusively. This is the 45th Anniversary of this section, and is just as popular as the main event on the square. I was excited to be juried in to this event, and I hope to see you there!
