This CSA (Community Supported Art) project was inspired by the innovative socio-economic Community Supported Agriculture model adopted by many small farmers, whereby individuals pledge support before the beginning of the growing season in exchange for a share of the farm's crop production. Similarly, my subscribing CSA members will receive a newly created print each month, representing what is "seasonal" in my studio, as well as an invitation to visit my studio.

It is my hope that CSAs can offer a democratic and personal way to forge direct relationships between artists and art lovers and to promote fulfilling dialogue about the artistic process.
