Damascus Open Studios is an annual event that allows you to learn more about artists’ techniques and inspirations and buy art directly from the artists.

This year, I will be once again a guest artist at Muddy Fish Studio (#7) with the host artist, Brenda Scott, and another guest artist, Diana Strom. Stop by and enjoy Brenda’s amazing ceramics, Diana’s expressive paintings, and my drawings!

I will bring colored pencils, my other tools of choice, and will be working on a small colored pencil piece through the event.
