Artwork / 2024
This year, along with keeping up my usual studio practice, I’ve been engaging in some artistic civil disobedience and finally finishing Everything’s Fine, a project about mental health that I’ve been working on since 2021. I’m still putting the coloring book version of the series together, but the free high school art lesson plan that’s based on the paintings is now available!
In this lesson, students will create images along the lines of the paintings in this series, communicating who they are and how they feel about the world through surreal self-portraiture.
Take a quick look at the lesson plan here or download the PDF, and be sure to tell all the high school art teachers you know!
What’s more, in 2024, my art is part of the Jersey Collective’s Sticker Club, a lovely initiative by Kerri Sullivan (pictured above) that promotes the art of New Jersey artists via a traveling coin-operated machine. My sticker is this nutty little squirrel, which was originally an illustration for a book about questioning copyright that you can download for free.
