These photographs were taken and edited on my android phone. We left some pain pills for Baron Samedi, as a thank you for intervening with the bone doctors ☠️

Keeping Backyard Chickens
Not art related, but homesteading instead! I will be teaching a 4-hr workshop on February 9th on how to start your own little backyard flock. Sign up through the continuing ed department at Santa Fe Community College! Only $49.
Unexpected Encounters
New large collage piece, “Unexpected Encounters.” I was definitely supposed to be doing something else in my life drawing class! I like to think of it as a companion piece to these BFF pigs.
Agate Fossil Beds National Monument Artist Residency
Miriam Sagan is recently returned from an artist residency at Agate Fossil Beds National Monument in Nebraska! We’ve done a small suminagashi/book arts/poetry project to commemorate her time there, using poetry and sumi she created at the residency. To see all of the suminagashi, visit our Tumblr Project, Sumi-A-Day. This book will be on display at the offices of the National Park, along with the accompanying broadside. For more of the work we do together under our artist collective, check out Maternal Mitochondria!
Walk Abouts
Suminagashi in the Park was covered in the Reporter! Check it out here.
Suminagashi at Zephyr

Today is our soft opening!
Come by the Railyard Park to hang out with us at 3!
Suminagashi in the Park
Suminagashi in the Park will be up at the Railyard Park this Saturday! Come say hi. Here is a copy of the letter we sent to the participants–
Thanks to all the workshop participants who created suminagashi and poetry in the Railyard.
The pieces will be hanging in the park—informal opening Sat Sept 8, 3-5 pm.
We will be sitting outside the community classroom to say hi and direct you. We have woven together your words to make a long communal poem. You might not be able to identify your exact words or suminagashi but you are indeed part of the spirit of this mosaic. It is all of us together.
To find the installation:
At the community classroom face south, (your back to Paseo de Peralta). Walk towards the rainbow compass sculpture. Look for a group of evergreens. Discover our art and poetry!
It will be up for a month, so come by at your convenience. Bring your friends and enjoy a stroll!
We’ll be in touch if anything changes.
