Miniatures for a Modern World

A sampling of small scale assemblage works I’ll have available for purchase at this Friday’s (2/27) event at . I’ll be set up starting at around 5pm and then I’ll be giving a talk about my art around 7:15pm.

Thanks to my friend for including me in this awesome event that will include art, readings, music and more. Hope to see you there ✌🏼

Last month I kicked off the new year by teaching a Make Your Own Mini Plant Workshop at the Art Students League of Denver (ASLD). In this sold out class participants learned how to make mini monsteras and small snake plants out of polymer clay with cork pots. This was such a nice way to start the new year. Flip through the photos to see what students made.

Missed out on my last workshop? Registration is now open for spring classes at the ASLD. I will be teaching two 4-week long workshops entitled Miniatures for a Modern World where participants will learn the basics of model building and create their own 1:12 scale room. The first session in March is open to young artists ages 11-13 and the second session is open to artists ages 16+. Tap the link in my bio to learn more and register.

Thanks to everyone who supported ’s Winter Market yesterday! It was so nice to connect with fellow artists and art appreciators. If you were unable to visit and still in need of a holiday gift, tap the link in profile to see available works in my online shop. The deadline for online orders to be delivered by the holidays (US only) is this Monday December 15th.

I will also be delivering 10 new crystal dioramas (Selenite & Amethyst) to tomorrow, just in time for the final holiday shopping weekend ahead. Swipe through the images for a peek of what you’ll find there.

Happy Holidaze!

I’ve been in the studio a lot lately, working on an Experiments in Public Art Project for the City of Boulder. Myself and my collaborative partner Shannon Geis have been observing the process of the first ever convening of a Community Assembly which first started meeting in May of this year.

Over the course of six months we’ve observed 48 community members as they assessed the feasibility of a 15 minute neighborhood for the city of Boulder and worked together to define what a 15 minute neighborhood is. We heard from many guest speakers, local business owners, community advocates, and representatives from municipalities as far as Australia. The culminating audiovisual installation will pair recorded interviews with participants gathered throughout the process with a sculptural representation of a collective vision for the future.

I look forward to sharing more about this experience in the coming weeks as the project nears its completion, including where you’ll be able to see and experience this audiovisual installation in the months ahead.

In the meantime, please enjoy some photos taken over the course of the past seven months.
