With curator Kate Fleming
Friday night was the artist reception for my show at 38 Cameron Gallery in Cambridge. It was a wonderful night for me, full of feelings of gratitude, camaraderie, completion. So many elements came together to make this night memorable–Kate Fleming’s exceptional curating, the dedicated staff at 38, the lively gaggle of friends and cohorts there to celebrate with me, and the good fortune to have my niece Skye Selander visiting Boston.
Skye Selander
Skye is an art student and an inveterate photographer, so this is one opening that was exceptionally well documented. (To see all her photos along with those taken by my husband David, click here.)
So with the outbreath that releases the tension and tightness, it is on to what’s next. Some interdisciplinary collaborations have been proposed to me. There are nascent traces of some new partnerships. But wherever the road leads, my mantra remains the same: Chop wood, carry water.

Wonderful night indeed, Deborah — but I kinda missed everybody who meets up here.

I quite like having a geographical ‘hood as well as the non-geographically constrained one…some day in the future they will merge effortlessly no doubt. Thank you for your support E.

Wish i could see your paintings up close – they look marvellous, and the show appears to be beautifully mounted, from the pictures here and among the 130 or so on the site for which you provided the link. You look relaxed and glowing. Well done to see your current oeuvre with an appreciative audience. Congratulations! G
