Greetings!

Becoming a mother for the first time has turned out to be a very special time for me.  Although I did not expect or plan for it, I so thoroughly enjoyed my maternity leave, I decided to extend it through November.  I am now scheduling photo shoots for 2011.  As you can see, Sophia has been quite an inspiration for a new body of work, and I am reveling in her company.

Since I have so loved drawing my new daughter, I am now offering a new service to extend this passion and joy to other parents. Baby's First Year Collections give parents a way to preserve in fine art the amazing and fleeting faces of each of the major stages of a new life.

As you plan your holiday shopping and excursions, please consider stopping by the Atanta Fine Arts League's Small Works Art Exhibition and Sale.  Several of my small works perfect for decorating children's rooms are included in the exhibition.  And if you haven't made it yet, there's still time to visit the Portrait Society of Atlanta's Fall 2010 Juried Exhibition.  More details below.

Happy Holidays!

And as always, I welcome your feedback about the newsletter. 
Your feedback is critical to my success.

New Work and New Beginnings

Recently  I embarked on a new series of charcoal drawings invoking the tiny miracles and milestones of a new life.   Because my daughter is so drawn to black and white images, I began capturing her in a way she could appreciate.   The following new works are charcoal and white
conté on grey paper. --Jenny
