I’ve been quiet here on the blog, but consistently working in the studio, here’s a look at what I’ve been up to!

Here’s what was on my studio table, before the table turned into a present wrapping station:

This is my sculpture, Balance and Tension: Scaling Up 2, as installed, I’m photographing it in the different seasons. This is my first outdoor piece that’s installed outdoors long-term. I’m testing the finish on this one to see how it holds up through winter.

Here it is in August, when it was first put up for an art walk.

Speaking of snow, it’s so dreary and gray around here that it doesn’t encourage much photography for my The View Through the Windshield series.

Here’s on attempt:

Here’s a view of another of these garden scale sculptures, on a much sunnier day:

Perhaps indoor photos will work better! How about you? What are you working on? What are you doing to keep up your creative habits?
