Stuff I'd Like You To Know About
Jerome Fiber Artists Project Grant
I was honored and excited to be one of three recipients for the Jerome Fiber Artists Project Grant for 2008. The grant allowed me to work towards my dream of having my surface designs (patterns inspired by my original paintings) printed onto environmentally friendly fibers and used in the upholstery and garment industries on a national and potentially international level. The project period was from December 1, 2008 through July 31, 2009 and concluded with an exhibition of the work in the Textile Center Joan Mondale Gallery.

New Business Card Series
For those of you who have seen my business cards, you may recall they are created in a series of 4. I'm excited to unveil series #2! This time around I selected a recycled paper and a printer who specializes in eco-friendly production. Below is the positive environmental impact I had by making this choice:
- 0.02 trees preserved for the future.
- 0.07 lbs water-borne waste not created.
- 11 gal wastewater flow saved.
- 1 lbs solid waste not generated.
- 2 lbs greenhouse gases prevented.
- 17,680 BTUs energy not consumed.
