Year Round Shopping

You can find my work year-round at Tiny Gallery in downtown Anchorage and at Girdwood Center for Visual Arts in Girdwood.

Both locations carry a rotating smattering of my original paintings in various sizes, along with prints, greeting cards, bookmarks, and other colorful paper goods.

Pieces come and go as they find their forever homes, so there’s often something new to discover if you stop in.
