Symphony

Here is my 3rd piece for the Van Singel exhibit in Grand Rapids, MI starting Sept 2009. It is 3' x 4', with the base carved from styrofoam and the tesserae made from busted wine and beer bottles.

Van Singel show in Grand Rapids

Here are two of three pieces I am creating for the MAM Van Singel show. The opening reception will take place on September 13th, 2009 with many of the artists there.

The first piece is called "WildThing" and the other piece is called "Breaking thru the glass"

This was one of two windows that I just dropped off for a fundraiser for MORC called “Windows of Opportunity”. The event will take place at the MORC Clinton Township grounds on Saturday, Sept 12 from 10 am to 3 pm. A preview reception will be held Friday, Sept 11 from 6 to 8 pm on the grounds as well.
The windows came from houses that were tore down so it was kind of cool and kind of sad at the same time. I have no idea where either of mine came from.
