Altoids Tinstallation

This January, I will be participating in the the Altoids Tinstallation with BOSCO at the Art Source Gallery....I have made 2 little art-pieces: they are both available for purchase: the proceeds will benefit http://www.boiseopenstudios.com/ :)

this is the 1st: named #J3

The inside: the secret is: it included a wearable lapel pin: attached the the tin with a magnet :)

So, if you choose to take home this little piece of art, you will also have a wearable accessory (or fridge magnet, lol)

My 2nd piece is called Secret Laboratory....

This one also has a secret.... ;)

A cute little vial necklace filled with clock-parts & oil.

The exhibit is up through January at the Art Source Gallery in downtown Boise.  Stop in & check it out; all the tins are for sale; proceeds benefit the organization from whence the tin came from: BOSCO & other arts collectives.  Tins sell for just $20 (what a deal!) 

Artist reception on 1st Thursday, Jan 5th: 5-9 pm: stop in for live music, wine & appetizers :)

Another Trophey

Just thought I would show & tell...

a custom trophy for the Utah Valley Home Builders Association

made with nails, bolts, screws, nuts, I-beam, & misc steel parts...

This is the 2nd year I have shipped trophies off to Utah :)

The nails are my favorite part :)

Hope they like it!!

Kleiner Park: a few new pics

The sculptures have been up for a few months now, & last week we  spent a day at the park doing a final inspection: to look things over & see how the sculptures are behaving in the weather...

After a final re-torque on all the connecting bolts, they each got a spot-weld to hold them in place.

We were still at it as the sun was going down (as usual, lol)

It does make for cool pics, though... :)

Construction on the park is coming along: but not finished yet.

The park is scheduled to open to the public in April of next year: stay tuned for details on the grand opening :)
