POSTS STORIES REELS

recent daily pages - I’m nearly to 300 - still learning a lot- doing something like this on repeat makes a difference within my art practice- so on I go…

🏷️ modern abstract painter, original art, make art not war by @nancyecloonan17

Today’s the day for a (semi)formal introduction!

I’m usually not forward facing in my posts, so here I am.

I’m an artist since forever, a painter for a couple decades, and really focused on painting within the past 4 years.

I’ve had my dog walking/pet sitting business for nearly 21 years. I walk a ton, and look at so many cool things each day. The experience of my days ends up being my art on a 2D surface. It’s the best!

A few fun facts:
I love music, cool music, not pop.

I hate hearing people chew or drink, yet love hearing animals chew and drink!

I have run 3 marathons (a long time ago) and now I only run while playing tennis or if a dog forces me to 🤣

I love odd numbers except for 8 because my daughter’s birthday is 8/8!

I love napping, and can do this nearly anywhere.

Let me know something about you in the comments!!

Choosing some of my pages to go to my show with Paula @paula_locuststreetstudios at @newburyportart

We’re hanging the show, Marking Time, on November 2nd. It seemed so far away, now it’s getting so close!

Save the date to come to the opening reception, November 7 from 4-6pm! by @nancyecloonan17

Our show, Marking Time has been installed!! @paula_locuststreetstudios @newburyportart

I loved the whole process of making, curating, and handing out work yesterday!

We’d love to see you at the opening reception on Saturday, the 7th from 4-6, if you cannot attend, you have until the 28th of November to view in person. by @nancyecloonan17

Sneak peek at some of my little paintings that may be shown in @newburyportart

Paula Edwards Borsetti and I will be curating on the spot, Sunday, which pieces will hang. I think this is a good and fun way to put our show together. It’s so unknown now, and by Sunday night, it will be all on display.

I gave this painting to my husband @23unclemike45 as a Valentines gift a few years ago. He started a new job after retiring; brought it to his new office today! I think it looks really nice here!!
