What's happening on this Blog for the forseable future!

 HELLO EVERYONE!

I am back at this blog thing and I for real will be attempting to post once a month. I need to start cleaning out the old to make some room for new so this will be a space to start looking at artworks that I am selling as part of a studio sale that is on going. It started on Instagram this spring but I need to do better so I am going to be using this blog as a page to send people to see the works that are for sale. There will be all the information one might want here about said works and everyone should connect with me through the social media that they saw the og post on. These will be a first come first served deal, I really need to move these to make new work, share with your friends & Fam who you think need some fun art in their lives. 

I will also attempt to put some things that I have seen art wise on here, starting with this one that has my attention lately when I go to SLAM.

December Post & Yep It's Late

Lets start out with just some images of new work that is finished



















The one on the left is for sure completed and in this photo it is a little washed out by the light. The one on the right is a cut paper piece that I am not sure is finished but its really close. 



 Went to SLAM the other day and saw the new Currents exhibit of Dave Hullfish Bailey and  I really enjoyed this piece.

 I forget to write down the title of this particular work and its just part of the whole here but I was very moved by it. 

Also way back earlier in November I was at the museum for several hours to interact with any of my students who wanted me to be at the museum as they worked on various projects for me and I viewed a body of work in the Print & Photo galleries that was pretty awesome so here are a couple of pics from that show.

Also I had a squirrel get into the attic space at the place I'm living it fell down into a wall and broke its neck and a foot was sticking out where baseboard would be good thing that was off for remodeling other wise there would have been a terrible smell later on.
