Hello everyone!

I hope you are having a wonderful fall and getting ready for the turkey day. I have many exciting events coming up in November and early December that I would like to share with you guys.

DC BRAU HOLIDAY MARKET

Washington DC 20018

November 30th Saturday, 1-5 PM I will be part of DC Small Business Saturday as a vendor at DC Brau's Holiday market. If you are in DMV area for thanksgiving, please visit the market and support small local businesses and also enjoy DC Brau beer! This is a free event for all ages. Here's the detail of the event:

I have been honored to be part of the National Museum of Women in the Arts's 'DMV COLOR Book Art by Women of Color' exhibition. The District of Columbia, Maryland, and Virginia—known locally as the DMV—is a fertile center of art-making for women of color of diverse heritages. Washington, D.C. and its surroundings have long been home to a rich community of artists of color, ranging from those born and raised here to others who built connections to the region as short-term residents. The exhibition DMV Color features an eclectic assortment of contemporary works by women of African American, Asian American, and Latina heritage. The artists’ books, graphic novels, photobooks, and zines depict intimacies of family life, legacies of enslavement, effects of rampant development, dislocation and newfound freedoms tied to immigration, and other topics.

This exhibition is up now till March 4th 2020. You will find my work along with works of 18 other female artists based in DMV area. Please visit this awesome museum!

Last month, I had an amazing opportunity to paint a mirror for the LINE HOTEL's restaurant, A Rake's Progress in Adam's morgan, DC. If you haven't been to this hotel, I highly recommend checking it out for their excellent decor and fine dining experience. This painting will be up until the end of this month, then it'll be erased for me to paint a new winter-themed painting on December 2nd, which will be up till the end of this year. If you are in the DMV area, you are welcome to come by and see me in action!

I am thrilled to have some of the best gift shops in DMV area to carry my work. These stores feature mostly local artists' work and would be great places to shop for your holiday needs. Now you can find my prints at SHOP MADE IN DC at their brand new location in Dupont, GIFT AND GATHER in Occoquan, VA, and STEADFAST SUPPLY STORE at both Ballston Quarter and Navy yard locations. If you are in DMV area, I highly recommend checking out these stores. You'd be amazed at their selections of beautiful and unique products.
