End of summer

End of summer......now I'm getting ready for fall shows.  I haven't finished my website (dammit) and have to get back to work on it.  But I did finish 7 pieces this week, and am looking forward to the fall.

My biggest excitement is that I'll be doing the Philadelphia Museum Show!!

So keep tuned.  Also, keep tuned to my other blog, faitheism, for other thoughts.

Floorcloth Workshop

Make your own floorcloth in an intensive 5 day workshop on Maryland’s Beautiful Eastern Shore

Award winning artist Faith Wilson has shown in America’s most prestigious Art/Craft Shows, including: American Craft Council shows, The Smithsonian Craft Show, The Washington Craft Show, and The American Craft Exposition.  To see more, visit: www.faithwilsonart.com

Enjoy the Farmstay Experience at Crow Farms’ Bed & Breakfast

You will be staying at Crow Farms B & B, a beautiful farm and winery just north of historic Chestertown.  Included in the five day workshop are four nights, breakfasts and lunches.  Supper is optional and an additional  nominal fee will be asked for this.  There are many wonderful eateries nearby. And we can order pizza to be delivered.

Although the workshop is intensive, there will be opportunities to tour the area, or just relax and enjoy your stay at the farm.  There is a pool, a wine tasting room, and a wonderful vegetable garden.  To learn more about Crow Farm, please visit the site:

Emily's Birdnest

I know, I know.....but, considering this took me 3 weeks.......
it was too hot to work in the studio.

Summer Trips...

This Summer I'll be exhibiting at the Guilford Art Expo in July
and the American Craft Exposition in August.......http://americancraftexpo.org/

Please make it car!!!

And Baltimore.....

Thanks, Wendy, for giving me the thing space and
for interstitial art......

And it's raining in Baltimore.....

On the Road

So, on the road......February was the Baltimore show, March is Atlanta, and April will be 4 Bridges.

The Atlanta trip this year was awful.......awfully interteresting, that is.  Because although the show was so-so in the area of sales, and has made me realize I should skip Atlanta for a year or two (at least) because it seems like all the cool people there already own my work; breaking down there was an interesting experience.  Mainly it showed me how kind people can be to a woman and her son stranded far away from home.  Southern hospitality is alive, and to the people who have settled here from Queens, from Pakistan, and India......Southerners all, now.....I am so grateful for whatever is in the water down here that makes everyone so goddamn nice!
