General Support/Studio Team Funding

Welcome to my Patron Progam 2024

I am re-launching my Patron Program with the goal of raising money to help support my hard-working team and their families. I definitely couldn’t produce my artwork without everyone’s help!

I have recently been granted fiscal sponsorship with Fractured Atlas. This is an international program that offers tax-deductible contributions to artists whose projects qualify. I hope you will support my wonderful studio team by making a tax deductible donation today by clicking on the Fractured Atlas star logo below. If you do not need the tax deduction, just use the gold Support button below.

Please support my amazing studio team!

Meet the Studio Team

What they do

Did you know that I employ 6 Mexican women in my studio? Sometimes we have an intern and it grows to 7.

Making large-scale environmental art requires many hands. Being an international artist is thrilling…and expensive and my biggest expense is my studio team. Meet some of them here.

The Feather Team

The Feather Team is comprised of Alicia, Samantha and Lourdes. They help me create thousands of feathers using silk-screening, and cutting. 

Let me give you an idea about how much it costs to pay this team.
Daily cost = $30; Weekly cost = $150; Monthly cost = $600;
Annual cost = $7,200 (in US dollars)

The Sewing Team

Esperanza and Eunice are on the Sewing Team and they sew the feathers and prepare them for cutting. 

Let me give you an idea about how much it costs to pay this team.
Weekly cost = $50; Monthly cost = $200; Annual cost = $2,400
(in US dollars)

The AdminTeam

Sandra and Tyler head up the Admin Team and we often have a student intern to help produce grant and exhibition proposals, website updates and endless social media and exhibition outreach.

Let me give you an idea about how much it costs to pay this team.
Daily Cost = $50; Weekly cost = $250; Monthly cost = $1,000;
Annual cost = $12,000 (in US dollars)

In Closing

Few living artists are paid a living wage for our work. I would be gratified to direct your generosity to either help me fund my residency to Iceland or to my studio team. Their hard work makes it possible for me to create the art of my heart and dreams.

I hope you will help support my trip or support these amazing women and their families.
