I was so honored to be part of the Anti-Defamation League's PREMIER ART EXHIBITION event this year! I painted the piece especially for this event - themed 'A World Without Hate' - the painting was auctioned off to a lucky bidder (don't know who won yet).  

The piece got a lot of great compliments - so I was truly grateful! My ART along with the others will be available to view for the next 3 days June 6th-9th at the Benrimon Gallery here in NYC! Exciting! 

All the artists involved :

Can you spot my husband below?

What I wrote about my painting & the theme in the guidebook:

Hey everyone - how's your Saturday going? It's sooo HOT here in the city, but I've managed to stay indoors working - thankfully!

Anyhow - some news for those who are interested in my Cocoa & Hearts paintings. This piece below is going to be auctioned off for charity at an ADL event (Anti-Defamation League).  

Here's more info:

Award-winning and emerging New York artists volunteered their time and creative talents to produce works of art inspired by ADL’s centennial year theme of “Imagine a World Without Hate.” The powerful artworks will be displayed and auctioned at a fundraiser bringing together New York’s artistic community and those committed to ADL’s struggle against bigotry and hate.

The event will showcase 30 artists (including me) who created unique artworks including paintings, photos and mixed media that express their vision of a world without hate for the exhibit. 

My painting is called "A Candy World" 51"x 48"- and it is currently on Paddle 8 for a pre-auction. It comes with a beautiful gold wood frame.  If you're interested in BIDDING on my painting below - you can go directly to this link.

You can also attend the live auction event on June 5th here in NYC - for tickets go here. Also, the painting will be on exhibition at Benrimon Contemporary gallery for all to view from June 6-8th - FREE to the public!

Hey guys ! Welcome back...I swear, it was so nice to get some rest this weekend, I totally needed it. My chiropractor told me that I needed to get off my computer to help my BACK PAIN...seems like ours computers are our worst enemies at times, know what I mean?!??

Hope you all had a great few days as well! As for me, I've been working on some commissions with a few clients - here is one I did yesterday for a client's home office. She wanted a combination of blush pinks & gold mainly. I love the way it turned out, how about you??

I'm still working on a few more but should be available to start more commissions around October 25th or so. If interested email me with size of painting you'd like & colors you prefer to see. If you're unsure of style, visit my gallery at Cocoa & Hearts.

Also - more paintings to be added as well to the gallery toward the end of this month!

Been super busy lately painting commissions. Here are just a few of the Cocoa & Hearts pieces I've been working on for clients. Some are pretty darn big...

For those who are wondering & emailing, I will once again be available to take on more commissions mid August. So, if you see a painting you like on Cocoa & Hearts, just email me & I'll let you know if I can do it for you. 

Thanks to all of you who've been supportive about my work.
