This one should be good and a lot of fun. The show runs from 11am to 6 pm with city buses running over everyone if they aren't off the street by 7. My booth will be on the 17th block, North side of the street, slot #12. I will have a brand spanking new piece there. It will be the deer that wasn't finished for the Ridgefield show. This show will have it all, food, music and a ton of art. Stop by and say hi.

Firstly, I would like to wish you all a most joyous new year.
I'm sitting in my studio with the dreary sky closing the daylight down early. I will be taking "The Beginning" up to Snohomish this weekend to the Gallery of the Arts Council of Snohomish County for a showing starting January 17 and going until February 28th. Their website is: www.artscouncilofsnoco.org
"The Journey" will be taking a journey up to PONCHO February 23. I'm excited for it's showing, I feel it will show well and I'll be quite curious to see just how much it will go for.
I have a spiritual connection with both pieces and in many ways don't want to release them to the world. I am perfectly content with their company in my studio. And...I want them to go into the world, to carry their energy with them, my soul. With both pieces in the creation process I have been moved to tears. They have captured the very emotion and energy I was hoping to create. I absolutely love,...cherish...covet ...the connection that these pieces make with those who are open to letting in this energy.
I am now excited to begin "Atypical" for the...

First Thursday at PosterGarden
October 5, 2007
I would like to thank Julie Landau for a great show last night for "First Thursday" at the PosterGarden, at 14th and Irving, in the Pearl downtown Portland. I met many great people and other artists like Ben and Todd who had booths close to me. Ben is a photographer and Todd a fellow driftwood collector. He shines them up very nicely and has some with bells.
I continue to create a piece for PONCHO and got a call from the local newspaper where they were wanting to do a blurb about "Thunder..." A little press never hurt.
I'll be going up to the San Juans soon to check out the area for the sculpture garden. They are wanting a theme piece and I'm thinking about deer and "Alert" like pieces. I will get up there and see the area.
Best to all as the sun begins to wane. If you are interested in coming over please let me know through this site. I will be glad to give you a show of my pieces.

I enjoyed meeting more artists at Marymoor at the Best in the Northwest Show and appreciate all who stopped by my booth. I made a super connection with Lori Boess who does Native American art and you can see her website at www.medicinedogdrum.com . I also met Vivian (and I will get the information about her site) who was a great help in chatting with regarding the business end of art.
On a downer of a note I had a piece vandalized. It was "Reflow Madness" (see it on my "New Pieces" page). It was made out of marble and in the river by my house. When I went to go get more driftwood over the Labor Day weekend apparently some high schoolers decided to "re-fashion" it and destoyed it by throwing rocks at it. If any of my local friends can give me information regarding this there will be an award. Not being of that nature I have never understood the need to just destroy something for the sake of destroying it. I'm left with the question of "Why?" and I think we all know that's a tough one to answer. I'm also thinking, "Bad Karma dudes," for the...
