Earlier this Spring, I had the honor of sharing a table with @mayoralexandriawojcik, bringing “Care & Creativity” to the community! 💖 My Creation Station & Pop-Up Portraits were a part of the @sliceofnew Showcase at @thelemonsqueezenewpaltz— and were even featured in an article by the @newpaltzoracle! I will be returning THIS SUNDAY (7/19) to put more people onto paper! Come say hi and listen to some great local music while you model for me 😇
