But wait, there's more!
More artists whose work and personalities I've enjoyed.
Wes Magyar

I thought he was my personal discovery when I first saw his paintings in Denver two years ago. It turns out that my opinion was shared by museums and galleries and savy collectors. Don't miss it.

Beamer Arts

I grew up recycling way before it was fashionable or easy, so Laura's jewels crafted from bottle caps and LP's please me. And it has given me new things to look out for. Did you know that pink 45's are very rare?

You can't have this one, because it's MINE! But Ben and Sage have created a remarkable collection of seriously one of a kind books, to help you remember your one of a kind life.

H.C. Porter

I stared at this piece in the booth across the way in Ann Arbor for four days, and when the show was over, I couldn't imagine life without it. I know I made the right choice to bring it home.

Greg Gawlowski

A good lesson in what you might see in your travels if you just woke up earlier!

Kirsten Francis

Here's another piece that stowed away home with me from a show. I like it so much that I painted a wall in my place gold in its honor.

Mindy Rodman and Paul White

Incredible whimsical furniture and some not-so-practical objects that would be a joy to live with.

See their website.

Peggy Cochran

Jewelry with strong solidity and delicate finesse. This piece is a container. And what a hostess!

Get intimate with her work.

San Francisco painter whose work makes me smile and think. Here's Little Red Riding Hood's ill fated romance, part of the Woodsman's Last Stand.

One of the delightful folks I met in Austin.

Stylish vinyl accessories. Built to last, priced to own, designed to start conversations.

Ross Matteson

When I was about 11, Ross stayed at my house, bringing his falcon with him. It was a magical experience for me, to creep down to the basement and see this remarkable bird up close. Ross' magnificent bronzes capture that magic and his love and understanding of these birds.

See his website.
Tom Walsh

My neighbor from my first year in Portland. I got so hooked on one of his sculptures after being near it for three days, that I had to take it home.

Here's his site.
