your vip access to new work from the studio
Your VIP Access ~ More Than a List
VIP is not a label I use lightly ~ Your VIP access is a relationship that I care about and tend to.
It is not a dressed-up contact list or a place where names quietly collect.
With your VIP access, you are stepping a little closer.
You see the work as I create it.
You hear me talk about it in real time.
You walk through the studio with me, and sometimes through the garden too.
This is where I share the fullness of the process ~ not just the finished painting, but the living experience of it.
A First Look ~ New Home Studio
You receive a first look at my new home studio and my new works.
These are the first paintings created in my new home studio ~ early spring 2026.
There are three works in the current group available to VIPs, each 24 × 18 inches on paper.
I am sharing a glimpse here ~ but the full experience of these works lives within my VIP space. Your VIP access to my new home studio is a first look not only to the art, but the studio itself, including its development.
VIPs Have First Access ~ A Closer Way to Collect
VIPs have first access to new artwork and a closer way to connect with my new art.
With your VIP access, you will find:
• the work in progress
• shifts and variations as the paintings develop
• the studio as it is while the work is being made
• reflections as I respond to what is unfolding
Some of the artist’s eye moments ~ like how light changes across a surface or how a painting softens over time ~ are shared there.
I also hold certain works back intentionally for VIPs ~ including this new group of 3 works on paper which I offer at a reduced VIP price, and are shipped flat with an acid-free backer board.
The Studio Space
The studio space is evolving, and in many ways, so am I within it.
Your VIP access welcomes you into this space.
Gift Space ~ Downloadable Art
I keep an active space for my VIP collectors where I share gifts.
Here you will find:
• studio process and works in progress
• full-length artist talks
• video reflections and conversations
• glimpses of the studio and surrounding environment
I also share downloadable art for personal use ~ something to live with, whether on a screen or printed.
A Shared Creative Space
Many of my VIPs are artists themselves, so your VIP access is also a shared creative space.
Your VIP access is more than a place to view finished work. It becomes a place of shared practice and creativity.
I openly share:
• my materials
• how I build and layer a painting
• the decisions that shape a piece as it develops
• the thinking behind a series and where it is leading
I also bring you into the spaces around the work.
That includes:
• studio tours as the environment evolves
• glimpses into exhibitions and galleries where the work is shown
• reflections on how a body of work grows over time
• full video recordings of my artist talks
There is a natural exchange.
We are not only looking at art ~ we are living alongside it, learning from it, and responding to it in our own ways.
The friendship is mutual.
It is a shared creative space where artists and collectors meet through attentiveness.
Levels of your VIP access ~ Friendship and Collector
There are natural layers and levels of VIP within the VIP space.
The first is friendship ~ open and welcoming, with full access to all that is offered online.
The second is collector ~ for those who choose to live with my art.
At this level, the relationship builds and your VIP access becomes more personal.
At times, I send:
• original works
• limited edition prints
• and small, unexpected gifts
It is a joy for me to give in this way.
Nothing means more than seeing my work in your spaces ~ or hearing that something I shared stayed with you.
A More Personal Note
I also occasionally write a more personal note to my VIPs.
These are not frequent, they are thoughtful and personal.
I share details of upcoming exhibitions and reflections on life and art. Sometimes I share special offers or giveaways.
These notes are a place to speak in a thorough manner, and they are another invitation that welcomes your response.
An Invitation to your VIP access
If you feel drawn to the work ~ not just to look, but to understand, to live with it, to stay near it as it unfolds ~ then this is an invitation to your VIP access.
VIP is not about exclusivity, though much of the content IS exclusive.
VIP is an invitation to share time and friendship.
It’s about care, and about sharing light as it’s received, with friends who desire that joy in their lives.
And I am grateful for every person who chooses to step into that space with me.
Join MFD VIP ART here to receive a warm welcome with your VIP access ~ I look forward to having you!
I share much of my daily studio practice and art events on my social media (Instagram), but your VIP access includes the gifts including exclusive offers, downloadable art, full length studio chats and gallery artist talks.
Note: access to Google Drive is required to receive the fullest experience, but not necessary.
