Another Burning Man ArtCar project!

Yes, it's true!  I will be designing and creating fabric coverings for another Burning Man Artcar this year!  This years theme: Mushrooms!  So if you're out on the playa this summer and you see some giant mushrooms on something that looks like it's from Mr. Toad's wild ride, then that's the one!

I am available for consultations on all artcar projects, so feel free to contact me!

Have a great summer!
