from the always spectacular District of Columbia!
I’m a freelance graphic designer & production artist. At least I WAS one...
Some of my Art-o-mat® art is periodically available through the machine in the SAAM Luce Center.

...for over three decades! But the busy-ness of my business took a downturn in recent years, due to many factors. These days, I'm focusing more on my own art, or my own design as art and lifestyle as art, as somewhat explained in this website.
My “old” professional graphic design portfolio is located on Adobe’s Bēhance platform.

That's right... it’s not a lie to say my art is in the Smithsonian! Or at least, that it’s available to buy, exclusively through the experience of using an Art-o-mat® machine! Go find it, on the 3rd floor of the Smithsonian American Art Museum (SAAM) Luce Center in the Gallery Place / Chinatown neighborhood of DC.

I love my longtime U Street neighborhood. Northwest Northwest! Ward 1 y’all!

I created a collection of fun & functional “ART-OBJECTS’’ foremost for myself, but also because I hope other people will appreciate them and buy them.
Since 1989, my home-studio-apartment has been located near 16th & U Street, NW — just one block south of Meridian Hill / Malcolm X Park and 12 blocks north of The White House.

For over 10 years, I’ve maintained a Tumblr blog called “It’s art if I say so,” a quote from my favorite conceptual artist, Marcel Duchamp, as well as my answer to the eternal question “what is art?”

The collection was conceived during the Covid-19 pandemic and realized thanks to my DIY-punk ideology and print-on-demand technology. It continually grows as new, customizable products are introduce to consumers for the first time in history.
Some of my art-objects were recently on display as part of the Hill Center Galleries 2024 Regional Juried Exhibition. Appropriately, they were hung just outside the Annie Etheridge Hooks Demonstration Kitchen on the first floor of the historical Civil War era building on Pennsylvania Avenue SE.
I’m planning to auction my personal art collection in a very DIY-punk way in 2025.

I’m a big fan of the DC Public Library system. My favorite branch is the Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial Library.
THIS IS NOT THE ART MARKET.
I’m planning a one time only, silent art auction of the combined collections of two dedicated DC-music fans and casual art collectors: my late husband, Dave Berman (1961–2018), and me.
The collection represents 40 years of modest collecting from within the DIY-punk community of Washington, DC and elsewhere.

The MLK Jr. Memorial Library, the Central Library, is located in the Gallery Place/Chinatown neighborhood of Northwest. It’s in a four story, black steel building, originally designed by legendary German-American architect, Mies van der Rohe.
Diagonally across the street from the MLK Library is the Smithsonian American Art Museum (SAAM), where my art is periodically available through the experience of using an Art-o-mat® machine.
Available exclusively through the experience of using an Art-o-mat machine! Like the one in the Smithsonian American Art Museum (SAAM) Luce Center!
My art-products collection is constantly being improved and updated. Everything is available for purchase directly from me.
