If it feels like it’s the end of the world, don’t despair! Come see incredible post-apocalyptic artwork with your friends on May 31st from 5-7 pm at No. 7 Center Gallery in Vermillion, South Dakota for the opening reception of the Thunderdomesticity: The F-Word exhibition.

I can’t believe it! I’m going to receive a Pollock-Krasner Foundation grant! Eek!

Lee Krasner was an incredible artist, and her mission was to advance the work of other visual artists. The Pollock-Krasner Foundation has provided $89 million to support to more than 5,100 artists from 80 countries, and I’m one of them!

I recently did an interview with Bold Journey, and I was happy to highlight many of the amazing people and organizations I’ve been able to work with as an artist! I’m thankful to be a Rural Regenerator Fellow, part of the Miss Art World Family, plus curate exhibitions at No. 7 Center Gallery. There are photos of my artwork plus shenanigans in my interview title “Meet Klaire Lockheart” by Michael Alvarez.
