Just next to Wren bistro, down the alley and up a flight of stairs to find the work of six fabulous artists!
I am now showing my work at  ArtLofts, a working studio and gallery that includes the work of seven artists. The art includes oils, water media, collage, pastels, jewelry, book arts, and photography!  I'm excited to be a part of this group.
