Presenting The Maestro!

Sometimes we need to remember the many reasons why we fight so hard to make the world a better place. Not only do should we learn from those who've gone before us but we also have a responsibility to teach what we know of the world to those coming up behind us. Art is one of the aspects of humanity that is often overlooked, or undervalued. Yet, for all of human existence we've honored certain creators of craft and art. Funny thing is we don't usually honor them until they're long dead and gone.… Continue

What a Difference Miles Can Make

Last Fall I exhibited a novel group of paintings by New York artist Eleanor Gilpatrick. Today I'd like to share more pieces from her "In the World" series.

Most of the paintings show the stark differences between circumstances we're familiar with and those oppressing the Iraq… Continue

4003 Dead U.S. Soldiers, What a Terrible Waste!

A few months ago I wrote about a very cool political art project by artist Jennifer Marsh. Maybe it's my empathy for someone who's doing a massive fiber collection project (much like my BraBall sculpture - which was a huge, five-year-long ordeal for me and my family.
