surviving helene
Hurricane helene update:
The first thing I want you to know is that I am SAFE. My 100-year-old cottage survived the storm. I am safe and have my needs met, but I, we, are not okay. The artists of Asheville, the people of this region, myself included, have lost so much. Approximately 80% of the River Arts District is gone. From my studio, I was able to rescue some originals, large giclees, and painting supplies. For the time being, my studio is not safe or habitable to be working in, so I am essentially paused.
So many of you have lovingly reached out asking what you can do to support me, and my first answer is to buy and share the art I have available. Right now, it’s most helpful to me to sell what I have than to take on commissions since I don’t have a studio and consistent wifi/cell service for communications. If buying art is not an aligned option for you at this time but you still want to support, I wanted to create this space to accept donations. If it resonates, feel free to donate at the link below. For the time being, we are still in survival mode. Thank you so much for your prayers, donations, love, and support.
