YIKES! news



Valerie McCaffrey of Ballard Street Studios looks over pieces at Luna Form in Sullivan, Maine

Road Trip

Last week was pretty busy with getting ready for shows, having company and a birthday party for a friend of the family. Did a little road trip "downeast" to Luna Forms in Sullivan with my best girlfriend Valerie of Ballard Street Studio. Valerie is a sculptor who creates wonderful planters, called appropriately, "Garden Guardians," from concrete. Luna Forms also creates their pieces from concrete and we got to see the workshop and works in process during our visit. It is a wonderful place. Very Asian in feeling. The pieces are huge and gorgeous! Maybe one day they will trade us a piece for an ad in the Gallery Guide!

Sea Candy


Coming up with some really cool shapes in reference to pods and crazy looking underwater forms. Here is the first piece fully assembled, though not quit done. This piece will probably under go some changes.

I've been blasting through some awesome color combinations=violet+goldish orange+metallic browns+pinks. Sooo fun!!

Next week it will be time to seriously work on the display overhaul!
