September - Rainbow Community Project!

My mosaic colleague, Luz Mack and I are working with amazing artists, volunteers, and the community — as well as the awesome students at Burbank Elementary School — to create this beautiful rainbow for their school campus. Every student put down several pieces, and the community is finishing it up.

If you’d like to participate, send me an email and I’ll let you know our next community gathering.

Watch our progress here.

“Joy Spring”

It took almost a year to complete this project. I was having such a great time with the central figure, but when it got to the background, I was stumped. I let it languish about the studio for a while until a few key conversations with two artists I respect and admire (Luz Mack and Kelley Knickerbocker) suggested a matte tile with colorful thinset in the background. I plan to do a few more of these, based on drawings I made during the pandemic. Happy New Year, everyone!
