Third Thursday premiere critique group


My 2ndStory Space Third Thursday open critique group met for the first time last night, and I had a lovely meeting with Carolyn Hasenfratz & Christine Ilewski.  Thank you both for attending.

And thank you Carolyn for the wonderful writeup.  I love events like this too, because they inspire me, push me to think about my art in new ways, offer opportunities to see others' amazing works, and nurture my soul.  It's always good to connect with fellow artists and creatives!

Here's a link to Carolyn's blog post about the premiere Third Thursday event at 2ndStory Space.  Please check it out.
