I have a window display in Northern Liberties, Philadelphia at 2nd and Green St.’s ongoing through December!

There is a grand opening opening next door for the store Acorn, featuring the jewelry designs of Sarah Lewis tonight. Sarah was kind enough to lease me the space in the adjoining window. Her opening promises to be big and fun. I saw wine and gourmet pastries ready for the big event last night! Sarah’s work can be seen here: http://www.sarahlewisjewelry.com

The opening is from 5pm- 10pm. Here’s the window display!

As you may or may not recall, my work was chosen to be included in the SAIC alumni show this year!

It’s a fun fundraising auction event where the proceeds benefit the school’s scholarship fund. The show is held in SAIC’s well-known Sullivan building off South State in Chicago. Artists either donate their work outright or create a piece on the spot. It’s a very exciting event.

Since I’d missed Chicago, and more than I even realized, we flew out for the show. My work, Garlic Clementine,

excitingly sold for half-again as much as it had been listed for at buy-out! In the last seconds of the auction count-down, two woman were actually shouldering each other to outbid on my piece! It was very exciting! I’m so grateful. That made my already fantastic night that much better!

Here are some pictures from the show!

A wonderful show all together!

Chicago was such a fantastic place for me. I hope to go back every year in the Fall!

Sorry I’ve been remiss about posting. It’s been an exciting few months! Here are pictures from the Angel Studios show I had in September.

Much thanks to the owner of Angel Studios, and my generous host, Keith!

September 4th, this First Friday, Philadelphia gets its first look at select works from the ‘Interplaying’ collection by artist Nicole FitzGibbon. ‘Interplaying’ represents the latest evolution of her work, and showcases her innovative integration of modern digital and photographic styles with traditional painting and printmaking techniques. The artist is proud to announce the first public viewing of these works in Philadelphia as part of Angel Studio Gallery’s monthly First Friday event.

Angel Studios Gallery, in the Fishtown area of Philadelphia, has been a wonderful supporter of local art and music. Recently, the owners of the gallery were robbed of their personal possessions, as well as the equipment for their livelihood. This, however, hasn’t stopped them from continuing their monthly First Friday event, allowing artists to display their works, and creating an artistic community around their Frankford Ave studio and home. Their First Friday event features homemade food, drinks, music and a full night of entertainment.

Nicole Kristiana Studios invites everyone to come to the fall kick-off First Friday to enjoy the artwork, and help those who are making a space for artists to show in the city. Nicole’s work will be on display in the front gallery, where you can also purchase limited edition art prints, art wear handbags, art wear shoes, and a collection of gift prints. The gift prints will be priced at a reduced price for this show only. A percentage of proceeds will be donated to the Angel Studios Gallery to help them recover from the theft, and to thank them for their support of the community.

Angel Studios Gallery is located at 2452 Frankford Ave. Philadelphia PA, 19125
