In September 2016 at the Harrison Center, I was a part of a two person show entitled Moths Alight, Butterflies in Flight. Â Allison Ford created beautiful moth inspired necklaces that were mounted on boards on one side of the gallery. Â Her intricate creations were static and mounted alight. Â My colorful, dynamic butterflies filled the other half of the gallery.

On my return home, I ended up stopping at the same spot along the Illinois and Indiana border. Â It was ver windy, but warm so I was able to position myself half in and half out of my car and paint. Â The car sheltered me from the wind and kept my easel from toppling over!
