My piece “Diagonal Chai” was accepted to the members’ show at the Falls Church Arts gallery. On opening night, a reporter from the Falls Church News-Press covered the story, and wrote a very nice piece about the show and my artwork in particular. I am so appreciatve!
Video Talk
In March, I was invited by my synagogue, Olam Tikveh, to give a video talk on my work, as part of their “OT Talks” program. Here is the link https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gLQe8kMnqRc. I appreciated the opportunity and it served as an introduction to meet more members of the community.
Polasek Museum Reception
January 24, 2023
The Society of Gilders was invited to exhibit the work of its members in a juried show at the Polasek Museum, in Winter Park, FL. The opening reception was delightful, and attended by myself and a number of other members, as well as a huge public turnout. The show is incredible – some of the finest gilding work you will see. I was honored to have two pieces in it.
The picture on the wall to the left is my quilled “Tikveh (hope)” The piece in the case is something new – a Guipure lace bowl covered in 18K gold leaf, with an accent of 6K gold. This is not on my website, but here is a closeup. By the way, I made the skirt and top I am wearing in the picture – with Guipure lace!
End of an Era
Sept 19, 2022
We had a wonderful conference in Asheville, NC. At the reception, it was announced that I was stepping down as President of the Society of Gilders, after 8 years. As a surprise, they had commissioned these candlesticks, with gold leaf supplied by my dear friend and past-President, Peter Miller.
Later in the week, I was again surprised at being presented with this framed photograph of me, surrounded by loving wishes from many of my gilding friends.
The Society of Gilders is having a conference!
