New Studio for the Largest Art Studio Crawl in the USA!

I finally got a new, self contained studio. I'm in Studio 120 in the Casket Arts Building in the Northeast Minneapolis Arts District. I got another MN State Arts Board Artist's Initiative Grant to rent it and to start making a new body of work. I really needed to get a taller studio to make bigger work and I'll be working on life sized 'Figurehead' sculptures. 'Figureheads' are the carved forms of mermaids, monsters, kings and maidens on the fronts of sailing ships. I'll be combining my mixed media vehicle pieces with human figures to explore a new aesthetic. I'll keep you posted...

Meantime, checkout the pic with all the people in my space this past weekend.
