I was excited this evening to learn that two of my pieces have been accepted into a juried show, "Volume: On and Off the Wall," at Lynn Arts in Lynn, MA. Hooray for juried shows in industrial and mill towns in metro Boston! The judge for this show was Kelley Bennett, the Massachusetts Cultural…
“Big Responsibility”
"Big Responsibility"mixed media soft sculpture(found wood, vintage thread, wire, floral tape, polyfill, bed sheet, muslin, acrylic paint) I found a wooden shelf-style spice rack at the dump and took a few pieces of it apart to make the base of this piece.
