Recent Work

There has been a second iteration of the 'urban necklace' series in the last month. The wall piece had a few new elements since its' first version earlier in the fall. I am not sure what prompted me to pick up all the discarded work gloves, but I'm glad I did. They are filthy and discolored, every time I bushed up against them there is a cloud of dust. But they evoke many things for me and look wonderful. It was up on the wall for a couple weeks and then came down for an installation we had in the gallery last weekend. It is safely store away.

My latest version, still under construction, consists of stuffed animal toys that I have been picking up at thrift stores. A half formed idea and I am working out a couple construction issues, but Melvin is a fan.
