I'm Moving!!

Nope, not really me, but I'm moving this weblog to a wordpress blog.
It's here
It's a cooler looking weblog.  Wait until you see the great pix I took of "Thaw".
Follow me over there - I'm going to delete this blog in a couple of weeks.
Got some new, weird art coming up, so don't miss it!

I love BS!

Wanted to be sure to post about going to the Bernice Steinbaum Gallery (I love BS!) on the Miami trip - Meeting Bernice was a wonderful treat. (Flamingo slippers and all!)  Some of the best artwork I saw the entire trip was in this gallery, and it was great to meet some artists as well.

Miami Art Week

I had the good fortune of being invited to attend "Art Week" in Miami this past month with some artist friends that are involved in the Pipeline Project.  It was a tremendous experience so see so much art in one place, and a energizing and affirming five days.  Art Miami, Red Dot, Aqua and Art Basel were some of the venues we toured... I was dazzled by the amount of art all in one place!

Front Yard Bargerville

This is one of three little sculptures from a series I've been working on recently.  The sculptures are made of grass, soil and dog hair - the concept being using only materials I find in my front yard.  (the lawn and shrub bed are excluded - my thought centers around the things that were there before I began planting and watering things.)

Bronze medalians finished

Great surprise! Bronze medalions back from the foundry. I drew the imagery for these, then David Klaren carved them in wood, and had them cast in bronze at Eagle Foundry in Lander. They are for the new elementary school, to designate the three different wings. I think they turned out luscious - and I learned a ton about casting.
More to come as they are installed.

Afternoon at Lakeside

I don't believe I've painted a boat before. I think this one is Frank Roncalio's. (Is it your's, Frank?)
The BLT with avocado for lunch was delicious too.
