This Thursday, I'll be doing a fb live demo w @rittenhousesquareart . Check out how I approach making a sculpture. Hope to see you virtually 😉

Sometimes it's good to jump right in.
These little heads I make are fun and curious. A way for me to get my hands working. I never know who is going to appear.

"There is the light, and, there is the shadow." One thing about prints is that you get to experiment with scale. Here I am taking a look at the 20 x 30" version of this image.
I still remember exactly where I was and what the air felt

So much work to get it to this point....next time I see it it will be in metal 🎉

Ode to Winter is finally published on my site! Phew. Perhaps some of the most personal work I've made in some time. It's a little nerve racking to share but we have got to be brave sometimes, right? 🌱

Ode To Winter #10

A selection from my photo series "Ode to Winter"

Be like water. I love watercolors for their softness and fluidity.
This was an invented portrait that I sculpted in clay first (see last slide). Then I painted it. What next?

Flashback to this sculpture that I made in my studio/living room a decade 😳 ago. I'm revisiting and working on a new video about the piece, how it was made, what it means to me and where it is now. Excited to share with you soon!

Doing what you love with beings that you love. Share the love today and everyday. 💙

Thinking a lot about drawing these days. What kinds of drawings do you like?
