Another break in the great Rejection String of 2007!

The very nice lady from LARK BOOKS called and they want to include one of my pieces in an upcoming book called Quilting With Beads. Of course, the Sexpot Icons were a pinch too risqué, so I am (gladly) making a new piece for them (like I told my b-f, it's time to remove the porn, I suppose). Hoorah!

I am so so pleased about this. One of my big goals for 06-07 was to get published and I've been very lucky, with the ArtForum mention, the Lexington H-L review and now this.

It gives me a little more motivation to get those exhibition proposals out.

People have been coming out of the woodwork with jurying/panel freelance work lately.

And, a bunch of people from Cincinnati in the arts (or that worked with me @ art places in Cinci) have been contacting me. Not that I've been taking this as a sign I need to move there........
