serious weight



Made with ceramic beads I carved and fired, bolt washers, hex nuts, and very big very heavy black carved bone.

sketchbook: March 1-3, 2011

I was forced to spend a few nights in a sleezy motor inn last week.
Needless to say, this was a time of serious self-reflection.







It didn't end well.


ceramics, etc

This is a bead carved from clay, glazed and fired. It's supposed to look like a particular kitty I know,

...it was made as a gift, here is the box ^_^

student work at Owl Art Center

I'm still teaching kids fine art at Owl57 galleries, these are a few of my favorites from the fall/winter session....







I don't like soccer but this is sweet anyway



Teacher pride!

I'm working on six or seven different drawings and paintings right now, so finishing any of them is a slow process. I have been teaching art classes at Owl57's AfterSchool Program for the new semester and I wanted to post a few of my favorite paintings and works-in-progress. They range in ages 6yrs to 9yrs.

"Robin's Nest"

"Central Park in Winter" I am assisting artist Jeff Webb, who instructs this particular class. He's a really interesting, great great guy.

These city drawings are an homage to a painting by Edward Sokol titled "Inside the City and Out" which is hanging in our fine art gallery. These are not finished yet obviously, but I think the drawings are just too cute!

I got jealous when I saw how much fun they were having so I made one of my own afterwards :)
