SNOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


(what is she doing now?!?)


I just got back, again. This time from Vermont and New York. I was in Vermont at the Vermont Studio Center (I love snow!!) and had an amazing time and got an amazing amount of work done. If I forget to tell you - I love snow - this is very important. Prior to that I had been at another amazing residency at the McColl Center for Visual Art in Charlotte, NC. Amazing.

And looking ahead,
I will be going to France at the end of April for another residency and then to Berlin for another. I just recently learned about doggie passports for dogs to travel in Europe. (!) I am seriously looking into this to see if I can't bring Tonta with me - she is quick with languages and really good at directions (and not bad at bumming for loose change). She's amazing - all in all a great travel companion - even without thumbs.

You may be wondering - what about the Farms Project? Well, as many of you know, I was going to be traveling to Texas this Spring to begin work on the much anticipated the Farms Project. It turns out I have a lot more work to do! I am still in the fund raising and creative marketing and planning stages of this project, so I will continue to be muchly anticipating this project until next year, most likely.

Why am I telling you this? In order to help fund these projects I am selling contribution packages for a new project
the Kerry Philips' Traveling Trust. Keep reading . . .
