Exhibition Schedule
It has been over a year since my last art fair, and I have really missed seeing my customers and my art fair friends , as well as the inspiration I get from these events. The situation still remains uncertain, and it is hard to tell when we will be able to return to life as we knew it. Please check back from time to time for updates, and in the meantime visit my Etsy store, as I am hoping to add new pieces soon. Thanks to you all! |
