Super-calla-fragilily

I created this neon sculpture in the neon workshop offered at the Museum of Neon Art in Los Angeles, California. The founder of the museum and instructor of the workshop, Lili Lakich, took this photo at the student show and reception. There is nothing more exciting than creating a piece of art that involves electricity and gas. Neon is the most expensive media I've worked in but truly worth it. You don't have to be an artist to take the workshop, just bring your imagination and willingness to learn.

Cavy Rock

This cavy, aka: guinea pig, was carved out of soapstone. I love these little guys and have owned one or more as a pet ever since my Dad brought the first one, fondly named,"Pukey", home when I was 8 years old.

Cavy Rock won 3rd place in his first show!

"Wheeeek!"

Koo-Koala

This tree-hugging koala was carved out of soapstone from Montana. Commissioned to carve a koala, it won 2nd place in a show before I needed to deliver it!

Napping Anteater

Carved from pipestone, and full of ants, this napping anteater slumbers awayas the rest of the ants oblivious to their peril, scurry along on their merry way.
