Google Analytics, Hello San Francisco!

It's always interesting for me to see where the hits for my website are coming from. This page shows that there is someone in San Francisco checking out my site pretty often. The page that cracks me up the most is the graph from Georgia. There are 7 to 11 hits and all show ZERO time spent.

Tin Work, ooooh La la

There was a Doral cigarette tin on Etsy that had the image of the Space Needle on it. No one bought it after 2 weeks so I did. The Space Needle was going to be perfect through a doll house window but I didn't know what would be happening inside. Little by little it came together. Measures 8" x 10" I think. Not for sale yet but will be soon.

Now completed and available on Etsy . Entitled Happier New Year.

Public Art In Seattle, Washington by me...

I could not be more pleased to have images of my work on a construction site wall.  It's located on James Street between 3rd and 4th Avenues in down town Seattle. In fact I stood  next to it telling the people who walked by that it's my artwork. One man from India was kind enough to stop and look at it. It was so funny. I want to make a Youtube of doing that.

Thank you to the Seattle Office of Arts and Cultural Affairs.

White River Valley Museum show...

This piece was awarded second place at the show! Yippee skippee.

At the risk of becoming boring...

Another teacup piece. I can't stop making these. Playing with color combinations is just too much fun. This one is 4 inches by 6 and 7/16ths inches and available on Etsy .

Another Recycled Tin Teacup One

 Butterfly in My Cup #2 . Measures 4" x 6.50" All recycled tin and metal.

Tin Artwork in Progress...

Still needs some sides and some corners. This has been a great exercise in trying to make opaque material look translucent. Something I have been thinking about for some time.

This piece is about putting your dreams on hold. Bottling them up and forgetting about them until it's too late. So in my way of thinking this is an inspirational piece. Don't Let This Happen , 6.25" x6" available soon on Etsy .

Looking at this piece a day later it's interesting to me becaue I see so much more I could have done in the way of adding shadows, under the bird and behind the jar, but at what point do you stop and call it good?

In it's finished state.
