The botanical mosaic mural at Magnolia Gift & Garden in Chico, CA!  It's done!  Come check it out and buy some beautiful plants and pottery while you're at it!

Glow in the dark skull finished!

I'm glad to say I finished the giant glowing skull! It took me a few months to cover the foam skull first with thinset and mesh and then after a few layers of that hardened shell I slowly covered every inch of it with glow in the dark tile (and some standard stained glass and glass tile in the parts that didn't need to glow). This is going to be my big ticket item at the upcoming GLOW SHOW, a blacklight and glow in the dark themed art show that I'm participating in as well as curating. The show will be at the end of August at the RayRay Gallery in downtown Chico. I'm already learning so much about things that glow under blacklight! More soon!

3 More for Degarmo Park!

Here are 3 more panels for the Degarmo Park bench/planter project. Three out of 24 panels that is. These are out of order, but they will wrap end to end around an oak tree planter that they have yet to build. I'm not looking forward to mosaicking in the snow.

25+ artists selling art near CSUC!

Including me! I harassed the New Works people until they included me in this fine showing of local artists latest works. I have quite a few new ones in this exhibit including my "Monkeys" mosaic, "Tree Spike" mosaic and my "Winged Vagina" tile. Come see! It lasts all weekend.

Afraid of Worms?

Don't be.  Especially not the porcelain ones.  I've made this crow and these earthworms for the Degarmo bench to be created later this year.  I'm busy making and stockpiling all of these fun wildlife creatures in the meantime.
