Natick Open Studios is this weekend. I'll be show at Metroworks downtown next to Sweetwaters. It's a new venue for Open Studios, so I'm a little worried that turnout will be low. Swing by and say hi if you can! I'll have some new pieces nobody has seen in person.

Instead of the usual one big piece on this easel I've got a bunch of little ones. Working big is now natural to me, but bopping back and forth on these little guys is FUN
