North Carolina Arts Council grant!

Thank you for the Artist Support Grant!

A HUGE thank you to the NC Arts Council for giving me one of their Artist Support Grants!  The grant allowed me to purchase a large format flat bed scanner to scan my larger scratchboards and to take a felting class from Scotland's premier felt artist, Moy Mackay.  This class was a game-changer for me.  With the new skills and techniques I learned, I've been able to create more detailed and higher quality felt art. Since then I have made several pieces - one was accepted into a national juried show in Norfolk, VA, and the others have been in the Cary Gallery of Artists.  Other artists have noticed that the class has 'upped my game'.  I've even sold a couple!

So I am so very grateful that the NCAC gave me this opportunity.  If you're an artist living in North Carolina, you should definitely consider applying for one.
