"Tiny Town" is a group of prints, based on her collages using Maurice Utrillo’s painting of a street in Sannois, France, as their base. The actual painting is in the Mellon Collection at VMFA. The actual collages have been disbursed through out the world via the United States Postal Service. These are part of Mim’s Mail Art 365 project, where she created a piece of Mail Art daily for a year. Mim has exhibited work in solo and group shows in the United States and internationally. She has degrees from the University of Illinois and VCU. Trained as a painter/printmaker, she was making large-scale paintings, but has now embraced collage and small format work. She taught at VCU in the art foundation program for 18 years; and currently is on faculty at the Studio School of the Virginia Museum of Fine Art.
