miniature amphibianses


Another photo of work for my upcoming show. I don't want to give too much away, but I'm excited with how these are coming along and wanted to post it.

works in progress

I'm back! I apologize for the long absence in posting. Planning a wedding is time-consuming, especially when it's your own.
I have a few photos of new pieces I'm working on for a small works show coming up in December at Fe Gallery. They are all detail shots, which is why they look a little funny and rough around the edges - a 1/4" x 1/4" drawing looks very different blown up for all the internet to see.

the bubble bursts

I'm back from Chautauqua, and because my wedding is 15 days away, I have not found a lot of time to post anything art-related. Until the craziness has passed and the dust settles, I'll leave you with some images from my last week at the Institute. Things got very quiet after the students left and we spent most the remaining days battening down the hatches for the winter.

One last glimpse of the cleaned and locked-up print studio through the antique warped glass . . .

Kilnmaster Kyle, kiln tech Dan, and I visit Lake Erie.

pictures from Erie

Here are some pictures from my trip to the Erie Art Museum with the ceramics department. The building is this neat old repurposed bank built in the 1830s.
We were there to see the work of ceramicist Kurt Weiser, who paints these incredibly intricate narrative scenes on his slipcast vessels.

I also spied some Kiki Smith in their bronze collection . . .

And a shelf of Krishnas.

infestation

I'm trying to squeeze work days in between trips to Syracuse and visits from family and friends, so posts will be less frequent for a few weeks. I'll be posting some pictures of my trip to Erie with the ceramics department, but until then, here's a photo of the beginnings of a new project. Big things coming to the Chautauqua print studio . . . or a lot of little things . . .
