The Catalogs are here!!!!!!

March 30, 2011

So exciting – I have finally got the catalogs in hand!!!!! I will do my best to get them out early next week to my staunch Kickstarter supporters as I am still waiting for the show cards! They look so beautiful and I am so very thankful to everyone’s pledges for this project! It would not have happened without you – really!

I have about a week until the opening and I am still busy getting work finished to take to the photographer’s this coming weekend!

Here is the image of the show card and then a taste of the catalog in the form of a poem in it by Stewart Kestenbaum.

Toledo Art Museum

January 22, 2011

Just Finished a Visiting Artist gig at The Toledo Museum of Art’s Glass Pavilion. What a great time! Here are some images of the space and the (peliminary shots) of the work that I made. Thank you so much for the opportunity and the help. As well Big thanks to Scott Darlington, the members of the Toledo glass community and Bowling Green State University students that helped me out during my residency. After that I went down to BGSU for a few days to make some work for me and with Scott – continuing our collaboration investigation, and finished up at CCS (College of Creative Studies) in Detroit with a lecture and a demo last night! What fun – but it is 11 degrees today in Detroit and I will brave the weather to go to the museum before I leave…………. sad to leave the area and good friends – but my kitten misses me at home!
