TWO GROUP SHOWS THIS FRIDAY EVENING

I will be participating in two large salon style shows this Friday, August 15 at Lady Base Gallery and Plazmo Contemporary. Both galleries are located in the same building, so stop by if you have a chance. These will be the last events held in this building before it is taken over by new owners. I will be showing previously unseen and new work. Check out the links below for more information.

HANDS

I am currently carving these hands from cactus pads.  I hang hands over the doorways of my home as symbols of protection.  I am loving the challenge and unpredictable nature of working with organic materials.


Crying Eyes

The "Crying Eyes" that were created at Mexic-Arte Museum's Make and Take were so beautiful.  I asked participants to recall an experience in which they were moved to tears and build this art object to commemorate it.  I was overwhelmed by their willingness to share.  Thank you to all of the participants as well as the museum staff and volunteers.
