ART AS MEDITATION

This is a tribute to Karin Bartimole.

She was and original member of "Art as Meditation"

and was not able to be in the show.

I am an admirer of her work and we missed her dearly in the process. 

I would like to thank her for contributing to the ideas for our concept.

This is a collaborative book we worked on and it is an important

part of the exhibition.

I would like to thank everyone

who contributed to our community altar!

It was so great to watch it get filled with objects

and witness the energy surrounding it.

Much gratitude to those 

who are so supportive to both Jeannie and I

in our endeavor to express ourselves

and speak our stories.

Enjoy the show!
