Cappy Counard said… - Hello Jill. Good to make the connection here on crafthaus. I really like the newest pieces that you have on your page. Reflection #5 is gorgeous and the image is lovely. What is the flesh colored material and are you carving it? I have been doing some carving myself and appreciate the forms that you are using.

Showing Publicly and Building a Legacy Privately
- by Rebecca Rose. 2013, SNAG/crafthaus Scholarship Recipient
For the next 13 months we'll discuss the trials, triumphs, and tribulations of exhibiting in art shows as emerging artists and established artists. Exhibition coverage will be balanced with tips on how to strategically build a legacy over a length of time, in a way that makes sense to your individual goals as an artist and maker.
Join us each month! There will be surprises around every corner, with photos, videos, SNAG conference coverage, and occasional interviews by rising artists!
