This spring has been a busy one! The garden in planted and school is out.
Mike has been tenured and promoted to Associate Professor at Western Kentucky University-Congrats!! Besides this news and exhibiting on both coasts this spring, he has been completely occupied with fresco. The 300 foot buon fresco he is creating on Western's campus has been framed out and prepped. With the help of students and apprentices the first two layers of plaster have been applied and are ready for the final layers of plaster and finally pigment. You can keep updated on the project on the fresco project blog
Leslie has been awarded a Professional Development Grant from the Kentucky Arts Council. This grant has helped her print promotional materials apply for exhibitions. In late June she will be heading to Hopscotch House for a studio residency where she will begin her new series of work. A TV production crew visited the studio yesterday interviewing Leslie and filming her while working on typewriter portrait. She will be featured on KET in a small segment produced by a very talented crew! We will keep you updated on when that segment airs.
