Benches -- Granite




Ok, feeling a bit guilty about not posting much in April, so adding my granite pieces from past projects...recently visited their owners, so, reminded me to do more soon. Use granite remnants, so psuedo green. The blue and white one was liked as standing piece, rather than bench, so David made stand for it.

Have been busy this April, but mostly with non-postable projects.

Pop Art Assignment





Granted, a little odd. Assignment was to create pattern and render in fabric a work of Pop-Art. I may need to explain what this is, so I am. An 'i," from iPod, iPad, iGeneration , etc. Figured out a nifty thing about pi as I worked the math for specific size ".," stitched in white vinyl, with cover made of clear stitchable (but barely) plastic. The "i" itself wasn't the whole story for me, so, I humanized the form by creating removable eyes and clothing -- to depict the reality that these 'i" phenomenas aren't cold technology, but methods that allow individuals to personalize aspects of their life and create in ways that were not too accessible not so many years ago. Title of piece is below this text.
