In 2016 upon graduating with my MFA from Pacific Northwest College of Art In Portland Oregon, I found my self in need of an art studio. I believe artists need a place to create, write, read and experiment. I applied, and received the Rainmaker Artist Residency. Now how do I pay for a studio to create art in when working part time and paying rent on a apartment. Inspired by David Horvitz’s project to pay for his art studio,“The Studio Rent Editions.” I have decided to do the same. I am making an edition of ten artworks a month. These creations can be a painting, or a collage, a watercolor, a small sculpture, a photograph, fiber art, or a page from my journal.
Each piece is signed and comes with a certificate of authenticity that is dated, numbered, signed and has a DNA dot. I call this project “Studio Alms Series.” I am selling these works of art for 1/10th of my studio rent. Selling one will help reduce my rent, and selling all will finance my art studio for the month.
Each object of art is for sale at $20.00
