For the last few weeks I have fallen in love and enjoyed the companionship of my new rescue cat, Toby. I believe that cats pick their humans, and I am incredibly lucky that he picked me! I’m looking forward to making new art inspired by our adventures on the road together!

Joy

Hey Folks!

This week’s theme was JOY

 

Dylan – Unfinished Jack in the Box
I have not yet made the box but this is what I have so far.  I hope this creation will bring intrigue, fear, and joy to some trick or treaters this season.

Amber – Enchanted Highway, photography

I travel across the United States a lot and while traveling I always keep an eye out for quirky whimsical folk art along America’s backroads. While working in the Dickinson, ND area this Summer I saw signs beckoning travels to the “Enchanted Highway“. Naturally I had to check this out!

The Enchanted Highway consisted of several large scaled public sculptures created by local artist, Gary Greff. Grief began the Enchanted Highway project in 1989.

I love what artists do to bring a some joy to others around them. I know I was thrilled to find them!

TOIL

Hey folks!

Last weeks theme was: TOIL!

Dylan

Stage makeup in advanced aging commercial shoot. Sometimes I feel as though I am spinning my wheels and achieving nothing. Yet sometimes I feel as though it is fine. I need to stop focusing on what society expects of me and concentrate on my own issues. In the end you only have yourself, right?

Don’t leave your balloon anchored to the rock. It will get sad. Let it loose and fly.

Dylan 

Unfinished Desire Mask. This is for my buddy who has a fascination with marine life and attraction to the skeletal form. Wink wink! I won’t mention your name but you would be the perfect anchor! I am so lucky to know you!❤️

Amber – Incomplete and currently untitled, pen&ink on paper

I find anchors to be a bit disheartening. They are meant to keep you grounded and secure, not a terrible characteristic, but they can hinder a free spirit.
