March Greetings! I’m happy to share a gallery of my current artist residency at Healing House in Cusco, Peru. Two of three workshops have taken place and the first in an open-mic series. At the same time I’m growing project La Puenta, bridging sustainable arts with women between Peru and Michigan. So far, I’ve been connecting with artisans from Chinchero (area of Cusco), Pisac (Sacred Valley), and Juli (area of Puno). For more photos, please visit my albums in Facebook: Artist Residency Jan. to May 2016, and Peru Volume II for more on La Puenta.
