I’m so honored to be featured in ARCS Journal by the American Romanian Cultural Society!

Sanda Berar and I talked about my path from Romania to the Pacific Northwest, how I found my way to glass, and what light means to my work. It was a joy to share my story.

Thank you, Sanda and ARCS, and thank you to everyone who follows along.

Can't believe it's already been a week since the Gig Harbor Open Studio Tour! 🧡

First, a huge thank you to my wonderful host, Marty Robinson , for welcoming me into Studio #14 and making it such a great space to share my work. And thank you to everyone who came through, asked questions, and shared a moment with me and my work. The conversations were the best part.

This is such a welcoming, generous arts community. Grateful to be part of it.

My solo exhibition has now closed at the Knutzen Family Theatre Gallery in Federal Way, WA!

Tucked into the stunning Dumas Bay setting, this beautiful space overlooking the Sound was home for three months to eleven mixed media works exploring the beauty of the natural world, including the debut of my series Seasons of Becoming: four pieces capturing the quiet power of growth, resilience, and renewal through Winter, Spring, Summer, and Autumn.

While there, I also had the chance to catch a live show at Centerstage Theatre - an intimate, wonderful setting for the arts that made me appreciate this campus even more.

Thank you to everyone who came to visit, and who experienced nature's rhythms in glass, color, and light alongside me.

A heartfelt thank you to the Federal Way Arts Commission for this incredible opportunity and for their continued dedication to supporting artists in our community.
