My show runs all month...

Hi everyone. Seasons On St. Croix did a wonderful job (as usual) of displaying my artwork for the opening Friday night.

It runs all month, so you still have plenty of time to go check it out.

I had a number of wall pieces at this show.

People seemed to like them.

I also made a few tables. I like making unique furniture pieces.

Many of my pieces have natural elements incorporated into them.

I'm kind of a stick and rock girl.

This is a huge overhead canopy- large enough to fit over a king sized bed.

I've always enjoyed working with color, but in recent years have really developed a technique. I've learned a lot more about how the steel behaves. I'm coming to grips with the fact that this is another type of art I'm developing that is less sculptural, more like painting. I have a tendency to want to do something with these, some kind of welding because that's typically what I do, but some are so beautiful they should simply be hung. It's an off shoot I guess.

This method is carrying over into my furniture too. I really had fun with some of the table tops.

I got a lot of comments at this show saying my work has changed, seeming to have gone to a next level in terms of design and execution. This surprised me as much as it made me feel good. I suppose I'm always working on it, trying to improve, so I don't see the progression as easily.

In any case people seemed to enjoy seeing the work and that was very gratifying.
