Wow, even more great news…  I am going to be featured in the NE Minneapolis Art-a-Whirl this Spring!  If you’ve never attended any of the shows, I must encourage you to come out.  This is an extraordinary art event and massive. My husband and I have been going for years and still haven’t covered all the galleries yet.  Friday nights are a blast with the opening receptions and party atmosphere.
