weekend Art projects

I declared it tool day and had a blast making stuff.

This frame is custom built and ebony varnished. It holds our first piece of art that we bought as a couple the weekend before. Thank you, i think it looks nice.













This older piece of art was mounted on a new board with hanging brackets. It will soon be displayed at Shepherd Community Center in 46201 zip code.











Stay tuned for more art. I've got several things in the works!

Mother's Day 2015 - 4 new sculptures

These are some of the additional little sculptures that will be included on "Mothers Day 2015". 

Can you tell me what stories they are from? 

I'll give you a hint: Sharmat, Keats, Eastman. 

school work

This past week the health class emphasis was on EYES. So to tie it in with what we are serving in the cafeteria I hilighted the Eye Foods on a copy of our menu & I made this ...

Reboot

Dear Internet Followers,

This last weekend I did a REBOOT  on the scuplture Mother's Day 2015. Basically I set it up, stepped back and asked, "Why does it stink?"

The answer is that there just isn't enough of it. So I'm working on four more little sculptures to orbit the little girl. I would show you but BAD NEWS: my camera on my phone is no longer speaking to my computer. Photos will be trapped there until they decide to start talking to each other.

For now, I wanted to update you on my art progress. Thanks for checking in on me.

Bus Stop Pew

A church is demo-ing a local eye sore. They found an old pew in the building. So they put it by the bus stop (where it stayed for three days!) I thought it fabulously odd, took some reference photos, and set to paint it fast. I hope you like it as much as I do.

July 2015

Some work you just follow as it grows into something. This one took reused board, paper pulp, acrylic paint, old calendar & hymnal pages, with stickers! Mixed media is easy but never looks like ART when I make it.

So what you have you been creating this month?
