Summer at Fort Hays

Here are a couple or the pieces that i made this summer in the Clay Plus One Workshop with Linda Ganstrom. I took two classes this summer. These are the first classes in my MFA program at FHSU. This was an intense workshop. We had an amazing group of highly talented people. We learned many new techniques form molding and surface treatments. We had a treasure hunt to find objects to incorporate into our sculptures. This was a wonderful experience as well as a great aya to kick off my new adventure at FHSU. In both of these figures I have used encaustic wax as a new surface treatment on their clothing.

A show called Artist in Dreamland. It is up until Sept 26th. Next, I am in show in Alamosa, CO called Examined Life. One of the pieces that I entered there I made specifically for that show.

It is the Zoomorphism Show at The Meyers Gallery. I also have a new gallery displaying my teapots in Chicago. This gallery is the Chiaroscuro Gallery.
