An Artist Talk with Diane Fine and Mario Laplante at CVA, MSU Denver. These two artists have worked collaboratively for more than 30 years. Their recent series examines the cultivation and collection of seeds as it relates to food insecurity resulting from the loss of crop diversity. The poetic aspects of their discussions around these topics provide the inspiration of these works, which are on view at CVA in the Pressing for Change exhibition that runs January 5 – March 23, 2024.

Listen to a five minute story and interview with Diane Fine and Brooksie Edwards about the Living with Dying exhibition curated by Fine and workshops led by Edwards.

I am honored to be included in this collection along with so many of my respected friends and colleagues.

Laura Sapelly is a vibrant artist, educator and community activist. She has her PhD from Penn State in Women's Studies and Art Education.
I very much enjoyed being interviewed by Laura for her podcast called "Storied Stitching." You will find that interview at this site, "Episode 16: a Conversation with Diane Fine."

A very beautiful, smart and generous site, designed and organized by Katie Garth and Tracy Honn. Treat yourself to browsing and printing and add to your library.

I have had two productive residencies at VCCA. I would recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxed, inspiring place to work.

Check out this wonderful and unique institution. (Founded by my esteemed friend James Sturm.)

I have taught a week-long course at Arrowmont many times since 1996. It is a wonderful place to teach and to learn.

I have had the profound pleasure of collaborating with Pati Scobey. Her work is technically stunning, beautiful and poetic.

Keith is a painter's painter and a colorist's colorist---among many other things, including being my childhood friend. His site is a gift and a joy to wander through. Enjoy!

Wendy is a printmaker and fiber artist who lives and works in Philadelphia. We've known each other for more than twenty years now! I've had the pleasure of watching her poetic work find its voice within a variety of media over the years. Last year she came and conducted a dyeing workshop with my students, which was fun and very inspiring.

Fabulous printmaker and fiber artist and educator.

Letterpress lovers will love this museum.

An excellent BFA program (if I do say so myself).

Use is obvious.
