“This season's exhibition schedule continues the 50th anniversary celebration of the Arkansas Arts Center,” said Executive Director Dr. Todd Herman.  “The theme is ‘Your Arkansas Arts Center’

“This is YOUR Arkansas Arts Center and a treasure for this state. I would encourage those who are seasoned members and visitors to take a moment on your next visit and reacquaint yourself with an old “art friend” or discover something new within these walls—we are always changing. For those who haven’t visited us before, I invite you to experience the wealth of cultural activities the Arts Center offers. Spend a day with us, dine, shop, view art, see a performance—we are free to the public.”

Your Canvas Junkie Host

I am your host at Canvas Junkie and work in several media. I design and make one of a kind sculpture you can wear or jewelry.

As well as paint, make found object sculpture and generally will chase after anything sparkly. When I was a teen my dad would introduce me as his daughter with the disclaimer of "You know artists are weird".

Now that I have seen many years of life pass by (I'm in denial about exactly how many)............. I'm happy to be known as an artist because....... life is just weird.
