Spike and the Bunny at the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia

Spike and the Bunny, Part I, 2005

Spike and the Bunny, Part I, 2005

I just learned from the folks at the F.U.E.L. Collection in Philadelphia that Spike and the Bunny, Part I, an etching purchased from the Puppies are Biodegradable show, was recently donated to the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia. I’m very pleased, especially since I’m a fan of children’s hospitals ever since Children’s Memorial in Chicago rearranged me properly back in the 80s. Check out the current projects at F.U.E.L here, and check back for updates on the submissions page. It’s an incredible space, a big former bank, and they’ve put together some amazing shows bringing exposure to new and emerging artists.

It’s been a long time since I’ve posted and there are a lot of things to catch up on! Here are a few shots from the West Carroll Open Studios. You can see my work along with pieces from Elise Goldstein, Lorien Jordan, and Jeriah Hildwine, as well as our books from StepSister Press. Thanks to the folks with Chicago Artists Month and to everyone who participated and visited.
