OPen studios tour

Thank you for stopping by my Studio on the Knoll Oct. 4-5 and making it such an huge success. I was happy to be part of the 2nd annual Oregon City Open Studios Tour. 14 original works found homes and I’m honored to have many new commissions to complete.

JOIN ME Saturday November 22st when I’m welcoming Sarah Moore, jewelry designer and daughter who works in recycled and repurposed leather and metal. We will be hosting a 4 hour event which will include hors d’oeuvres, cider, wine, tea and coffee. It’s a great time to grab a gift your yourself or fill a stocking! All are welcome.

Along with my “New for 2025” EVERYDAY ORNAMENTS (and the whole collection!), I plan to have my greeting of cards on hand for you folks who still believe a handwritten note is the BEST kind of note! JOIN US anytime Nov. 21 from 2-6:00 pm. My ocean wave series is currently sold out. More to come spring of 2026.

RECENT WORK - Riding the Rugged Wild Wave Collection

A native of Lunada Bay in Palos Verdes Estates California, I’ve lived now in Oregon for 41 years. This continuing series of the West Coast Waves are painted on panels and finished in cold wax, framed in alder wood floater frames without the need for glass. Once signed by Carrie, they are easily shipped and ready to hang upon arrival. Ranging in size from 20” x 20” to 30” x 60”, each piece is inspired by travels to beaches of my youth. Commissions available.
