Olde Ipswich Days July 26-28 & The Great Blue Heron

I am hard at work getting ready for this year's annual arts and crafts fair, "Olde Ipswich Days" which will run through the weekend of July 26-28. This year I will be sharing new work and new shop items including new tiles, tea towels, and more! I have been working on some new pieces that I am also really excited to debut including this new work, The Blue Heron.


Unraveling the Beauty of the Great Blue Heron


For many years, the Great Blue Heron has been a cherished presence in my life. Residing near the Ipswich River, the Great Marsh, and Crane Beach has afforded me numerous opportunities to observe this majestic bird in its natural habitat.


When standing still in the water, blending seamlessly with the soft blues and greens of its surroundings, the Great Blue Heron exudes a calm and confident energy that resonates deeply. This bird embodies self-reliance and the strength to stand independently, symbolizing personal growth and progress.


The Heron's message of self-determination reminds us that even the smallest steps forward are significant. This painting serves as a gentle reminder that any progress, no matter how small, is

meaningful. It encourages us to embrace our individuality, celebrate our unique beauty, and

recognize that we have something valuable to offer the world.


Take a moment to stand still, savor the summer greens and pastel skies, and remember that we
can take flight whenever we choose.

And I hope to see you at Olde Ipswich Days at the end of July!
