This is the second show I have participated in with the theme being BOXES. If you have followed my blog over the years you may remember the pieces I did back in 2007. I had a lot of pieces for that show...a busy time for me.
You can revisit a few of these pieces via these links:
Secrets in the Basement..., The Forgotten Offering, Some Are Quite Coy, The Tinder Box, Jack In The Box
This current BOXES show opens tomorrow night, Sept. 4, 2015 at Bainbridge Arts and Crafts Gallery on Bainbridge Island with 14 artists revealing their take on BOXES. The Artists Reception is from 6-8pm. If you are in the area, stop by to see the exhibit and for a visit and perhaps a glass of wine.
The image below shows Another Brush With Fate in mid-stream progress where I contemplate what to use, such as objects I have on hand or something I need to fabricate to build the remainder of the piece. The surface of my work table, more often than not, gets pretty cluttered, but I hear it is a sign of a creative mind...we'll hope that is true and not something to the contrary.
Again, with this piece as with many others, the sequence of assemblage is critical so as not to damage other parts as I am putting the elements together to complete it...
End result...Another Brush With Fate
In the artful world of nest building our feathered friends create their homes wherever their needs call them. Be it a tree limb, a rafter, a shoe, or perched on an old box, their designs, constructions and locations are quite ingenious and often precarious, therefore their future can hang in the balance.
I like to add a sense fun with the use of word-play for my pieces titles,

In the artful world of nest building our feathered friends create their homes wherever their needs call them.

I like to add a sense fun with the use of word-play for my pieces titles,
thus was born Another Brush With Fate.
