Beginnings

Every February, the wonderful BayArts gallery  in Bay Village, Ohio puts on an "Emerging Artists" show in which they give two relatively unknown artists the opportunity to display their work. This is a great honor and opportunity, especially since the gallery is excellent and doesn't have very many shows each year.

We (Sue the ceramicist and Erin the illustrator) are very excited to announce that we were chosen to display our work in the Emerging Artist show in 2012!

Having a year to create a body of work is a rare luxury and we are still at just the beginning of a long journey. There is a lot to think about - Theme, Subject, Technique, Staging, the food, etc. The show is completely ours to design, and while it is exciting to have that much freedom, it adds a lot of responsibility. This blog will serve as a way to document our process and progress on every front.

The show is actually going to be in that house pictured on the barge! It has been completely renovated and has found a new home on the BayArts campus on Lake Erie. Its a pretty magical place.

So please stop by often! Beautiful things will happen here, I promise....
