Oranje 2012

Lots of fun,  good conversation, making new friends and visiting with some old ones too!

A work in progress....

Trying to expedite this new painting and get it ready for Oranje.

I am a teacher....

Roughing out shapes and colors....just getting started.

One thing I know about is the learning process. What is going on in American public education today is shameful. I will explore the perversion of American public education by powerful entities who have no business dictating non consensual learning experiences to millions of children  in American public schools.
Our schools have become test prep factories and the consequences of treating children like cogs on an assembly line have contributed to many wicked problems in American society. This is a moral matter.

Working With Rocks, Re-Purposed Brick and Stone.....

I had the back yard all torn up the past week and ended up with something interesting. It is a change of pace sculpting with plastic like materials and then working with 100 to 250 lb. slabs and stones.

Mobius sculpture at the Greenfield Creative Arts Center

My son Payton standing next to a mobius strip made out of paper sculpting material and covered with re-purposed paint. My sincerest thanks to Sandy Hall for her efforts organizing the Teachers as Artist event.
