Does it work for all artists to be out of their comfy studio and into a public venue for a month? Is it easier for a 3D artist to create vs 2D while on display? It’s too early to tell for our group of four but it will be an interesting conversation for next week.Continue reading “Artists@Work: day 4”

Artists@Work: Day 3
Even before taking off to the Arts Center, I had to snap one photo of all the vultures in the back field. Grass seed farmers were cutting crops today which stirs up a great commotion in the avian world. I counted over 20 turkey vultures, 3 red tailed hawks and one immature bald eagle gettingContinue reading “Artists@Work: Day 3”
Artists@Work: Day 2
Kendal joined into our group today and it’s a pleasure to have her! The gallery finally feels full now. It’s funny to see people’s responses to the show. Most folks don’t even want to venture into the space even though there are big signs saying “Please come in!” People are expecting that the exhibit isContinue reading “Artists@Work: Day 2”
Artists@Work: Day 1
It was our first of many work days ahead in the month of July for the four artists involved in the Artists@Work exhibit. Below are some of the images from my work space and co-workers. This is a shot of my “studio space” surrounded by a few of my works. I brought in a charcoalContinue reading “Artists@Work: Day 1”
Sleep Deprivation and Demon Dogs
This morning started early due to “Demon Dog” Moby jumping on the bed. 70 lbs of leaping dog is something you can’t miss, especially when it’s on your sided. Nudging, pushing, standing over the top of me staring, stepping all over my legs, the Beast was making his point loud and clear. Hungry! Food please?!Continue reading “Sleep Deprivation and Demon Dogs”
Pre-Show Work
My mission today was thus: #1: Take a couple of photos of my designated space in the gallery #2: Work on a maquette to better solidify my visual concept. With a barking Maggie waiting in the car, I took a couple of photos and did some quick measurements of the west facing wall in theContinue reading “Pre-Show Work”
Studio Photos & Card Making: day 2
Since there is often quite a bit of down time waiting for screens or paper to dry, I thought it might be nice for you to see my printmaking space prior to finishing the screen show. The slat wall helps hold many printmaking supplies along with journals and a mish-mash of items. The flat fileContinue reading “Studio Photos & Card Making: day 2”
Creating Cards
I have been looking around the studio in search of cards to sell during the upcoming event in July and discovered only one left. Wow, guess it’s time to get cracking on more! The last set were actually scrounged leftovers from a different project. Too many House 4E prayer flags created on paper so IContinue reading “Creating Cards”
Moving towards new products…
Woodworking is a love/hate relationship at my studio. I need to create using wood in order to help display other works, but really lack confidence and tool know how. My father is a good wood crafter, producing furniture, building houses & cabinetry, but I have not yet taken advantage of his knowledge (and he’s 84Continue reading “Moving towards new products…”
