Solo Show at Pence Gallery, Davis, CA

If you see me in the next few days you're going to see a humongous smile on my face. Why you ask? Spring break. What lovely words.

Over spring break I will be loading Missy (my car) full of art to take up to Florida Craftsmen gallery. They've asked me to put work in the Tampa Airport. Also, last week I was offered a solo show at Pence Gallery in Davis, CA for the month of December. How exciting is that? Also, part of an Art Doll show at Florida Craftsmen in April. Needless to say I will be a sculpting maniac for the near future. But being the workaholic that I am... sort of love it. Stressed, but enjoying the challenge.

So, be sure to stay posted. Lots of stuff going on. This piece is another life size (like a 2-3 year old child). I call her Lucky. She'll be sure to bring safe flights and good luck to anyone who sees her in Tampa Airport. So if you're passing by and see her snap a picture and let me know you were keeping her company.

Evil Eye Warder

I got a call from Florida Craftsmen Gallery on Monday and they asked if I would want to show my work in the Tampa International Airport. So I said yes and I think this is one of the pieces I am going to include. She's the Evil Eye Warden or the Evil Eye Warder Offer. Get it, she wards off the evil eye.

After all, what's better in an airport than a creature who keeps bad luck at bay? She's a big girl measuring 28 inches from her feet to the tip of her crown. And I actually built her in 2 pieces so she could fit into a kiln.

I am pleased with the glaze, her face reads pretty realistic. Almost creepy... but I like it like that. A lot.
