Hello Friends!
been a blur these past few weeks..
gettin ready for BooBen's garage Sale and stuff.........
not much time to chat
booth preparations/signage/etc.
but DID get to shoot a LOT of the new pieces for this event
so......
but first
Lemme catch up....
Zeta-Music! Exactly!
Some pieces have a textural feeling
others more cerebral
others talk and chatter
others sing
and others emit strange tunes...
thanks for singing along!
Babalu-mmmmm candy!
Guess we got the markets cornered for eye and hand candy my friend! :)
Zero-Thanks for poppin by with them nice words!
the pufferfish had just taken a sip and decided to sing his praises
and words of friendship to his
long-faced friend!

These past 2 weeks have been a hazy mist of different styles and stories.....visiting old themes and inventing new ones....
total ART-BLAST!
fun but tiring....
but i digress....

this upstanding good citizen provided the surfaces upon which
i had the following art riot....

This next batch below are BooBen and Ken collaborations
kind of....
Ben takes his scraps and applies them to the board
however he wants!!!!!!!!
!!!!!!!
and then it's the challenge of taking these areas that pop off the surface and to integrate them into a design that can be viewed from both the front and side!
like 3-d man!
gotta admire all those sculptors out there
most painters are just used to 2-d
Well anyway, it's like a mental chess game where you both win!
YAY!
Well, here they are....
i am providing an additional shot of each to show you the dimensionality,maaaaan!
groooooovy.
