Revving up...

It's been a busy January revving up for a new year of shows and events.  The past month, when I am not shoveling snow, I have been in the studio making a stuff to get ready for my upcoming shows.  ACC Baltimore is right around the corner and I have been creating lot of new JunkYard Dogs, Fallen Angels, ScrapHeads, etc.

In between making the bigger pieces I make use of all the bottle caps we have by turning them into CapHeads -- fun little magnet friends.

All work and no play...


With the weather getting colder there is more time spent inside and less time spent in the garden. We recently finished landscaping in the front yard by the deck. Sadly this may be the last garden project of this season :-(

These pictures show progress on our GEP (grass eradication program)....before the deck, after the deck and finally with the new landscaping.
Seems like I spend most of the time in the studio getting ready for upcoming shows. Out of a new creative burst emerged these JunkYard Dogs.

Today I go on a scouting mission to find bits to create more JunkYard Dogs.

Road Trip

I am preparing for a big road trip that will take me to my next two shows. First we travel south to Asheville, NC for the 37th Annual Village Art and Craft Fair on August 1st and 2nd. Then we make our way up to Minneapolis, MN for the Uptown Art Fair (August 7, 8, 9). If you are in the area stop by and say hi.

On our way up to Minneapolis we will spend a few days in Chicago for a mini vacation.

Trapping Evil Spirits

A few years ago when we were at Kentuck we saw our first bottle tree and ever since have been possessed by them. We had to have one. So after drinking many bottles of wine we finally had enough bottles to make our own bottle tree. Last week, Deb spent a day in the barn welding rebar and this was the result.
What is a bottle tree?
The bottle tree's origins can be traced back to Africa. It was believed that bottles suspended in the trees would attract evil spirits when the sun glimmered through the bottles. The evil spirits would then be trapped in the bottles.
