I was contacted by First Thursday on Main in conjunction with SC United FC to take a soccer ball and create a piece of art for a scavenger hunt in a special promotion of United and Liverpool's soccer game on August 3rd, 2024. Twenty local artists were chosen and I felt completely honored (and excited!) to be one of them. 

     I am so excited to reveal that I was one of the chosen artist to participate in Mayor Daniel J. Rickenmann's and The City of Columbia's (SC) Columbia Streams Art public art project. That's a mouthful! I also want to add my husband, Devon Corley, also was choosen to participate, so we had two leaping trout sculptures hanging out around the studio. 

Wishing you a festive season wrapped in love and topped with joy!

I opened 2023 with a solo show and now I am ending 2023 with a solo show!

In January 2022, I answered a call for artist through South Carolina Audubon. The top of my bucket list, as an artist, has been to create a project with the Audubon Society, so hopes were high. And guess what....I landed the gig(and with no real public art projects under my belt)! In Feburary, I began work on a public art project that would launch in April 2022  at Folly Beach's(South Carolina)Lighthouse Inlet Heritage Preserve, through Audubon South Carolina as part of the Atlantic Flyway Human Disturbance Project.  The project aligns with my work as an artist, naturalist, and environmentalist. The campaign aims to give nesting shorebirds the "red carpet treatment". Adding strategic reminders like, "walk the waterline", as visitors walk the .75 mile paved walking path leading to the beach entrance. At the beach entrance, patrons have a spot to take their photo with a large mural cutout, that repeats the  message of "walk the waterline" and the hashtag "shorebirdstars".
