We couldn't agree more! Come see lots of beautiful artwork in person at the Collective!

Open Wed through Sat 10 to 5
And First Fridays 10 to 7

Have you seen my work in person?

You just can't experience the mood, textures and true colors unless you're standing before a work of art.

It might evoke a memory or emotion in you; stirring up a nostalgic feeling of days gone by.

It might just make you happy.

Or, maybe it's a color you love and want in your home.

Whatever your reason to love and absorb art, you can find my paintings hanging here:

Maquoketa Art Experience through the end of June, Maquoketa, IA

Galena Center For The Arts in Galena, IL

Fritz And Frites Bistro in Galena, IL

The Collective in Elkader, IA
