Artist Statement:
I began this Cat and Coconut series in late July, shortly after Kamala Harris announced her 2024 presidential campaign. The weeks leading up to her announcement had been so disheartening. The sudden shift in the news was more than just hopeful; the electric charge was vibrant and palpable. I wanted to celebrate my excitement with gusto.
When the opposing party came after Childless Cat Ladies, it fueled my fire.
Tapping into the latest social media trends and memes inspired me to create a Cat and Coconut design capsule. A Cat and Coconut Motif would make fantastic wallpaper in Kamala’s Kitchen, and a cat and Coconut dress would be so chic at Kamala’s inauguration.
Cat portraiture has always been a significant focus in my work, mainly because I am enchanted by the unique personalities of my subjects. I feel the same way about all the charismatic cat lovers I encounter: Strong-willed, empathetic, sensitive people who are often mislabeled or misunderstood.
The works in this show are not just Valentines for Kamala: They are Love Letters to all the Cat People who support her.

Zodiac Wine Tasting this Friday!
We are thrilled to kick off our September tastings with Kate Webb from @sunmoonrising this Friday evening from 5.30 - 7.30.
Sun Moon Rising is where the stars and the vines meet for a one of a kind celestial experience. Your unique astrological identity is made up of three major placements: your Sun, Moon, and Rising. We’ve curated twelve different wines, personalized towards each astrological sign and their defining characteristics.
Sun Moon Rising is a female-owned brand, created by a certified sommelier and an astrology lover who have come together to create something truly cosmic for you! Made with locally sourced, sustainably grown grapes from New York State’s best winemaking regions - the Finger Lakes and North Fork, Long Island - our small batch production ensures high quality and a focus on the important details.
What’s your Wine?

What’s your wine, sun, moon rising?
The Astrological New Year starts when the Sun moves into Aries, today March 20 during the spring equinox. This marks a time of new beginnings and fresh starts. Aries, as the first sign of the zodiac, signifies the start of a new cycle for everyone, bringing in renewed energy and opportunities. Come indulge in a personalized wine experience locally sourced from NYS! All wine is delish, certified sustainable and low intervention. Oh yeah woman owned and operated. What’s your sign?
Everyday is International Women’s Day at the Gowanus Wine Studio & Tasting Table. This is our norm not our exception. So much so I bet you don’t finish this reel. That’s ok, everything made by or involved with women producers are tagged. You will be surprised how many because like I said, we are in our natural environment. Come on by and check it out. I want to give a big shout out to those women producers that live in or around the neighborhood. Brava to the hussle!
