Paper Hearts Give You Paper Cuts

It's official... I will be working as an Artist-in-Residence at a MPS Summer Recreation Enrichment Camp. I am pretty excited to be working on such an intense project and spent the weekend working out samples for my projects. Then one thing led to another and I discovered a new art endeavor for my own work. By using the Scientific Method I spent today working on understanding materials to their fullest potential and have an end goal I would like to achieve by the close of the summer. Somehow I worked till the day disappeared and my work turned into goofy play time. Today I learned that Paper Hearts Give You Paper Cuts.... gonna hold out for that Heart of Gold.

I *still* just want a pretty apron.

I started this project early 2008. During the Guildess Discussion on Inspiration in March 2010 I was encouraged to keep working on it. It's been a long time since I really made ART. Since early 2009 I started doing silly creative stunts, began facilitating art and craft for others, and explored tiny visual exercises. Domestic spaces and the events that occur in them inspire me on a daily basis.

Guildess is a contemporary female art collective based in Milwaukee, WI. Guildess was started by Miranda Levy and Brittany Parker in January 2009. Our goals are to grow, learn, network, and serve the community together. We host regular Gallery Night shows (which men and women are both invited to enter) and a yearly member’s show. Each exhibition benefits a local charity. We also organize educational workshops and social events for members. We meet monthly to critique art, chat, laugh, eat and plan upcoming events.
