Day 2

I'm listening to Carlos Nakai Native American flutist extradordinaire this morning while enjoying the spectacular northern New Mexico day that is unfolding.

I'm a sculptor who primarily works in cast glass... sometimes bronze. But lately I've been doing lots of abstract painting. Have settled into a couple of series I like... one is more colorful, sort of abstracted landscapes with odd shapes... the other has more dark tones contrasting with white with "drippy" imagery. I will take some photos and post.

I also do environmental consulting... which I am working to juggle more effectively with art. The consulting tends to consume a lot of time.

My art goal today is to organize my sketches of abstract sculpture to determine the next direction I'm going in glass sculpture.

Blog christening

Welcome to my new blog! I will include random musing on life in general, as well as daily or near daily descriptions of the act of creating an artful life, which when you really get down to the nitty gritty, is just as much of a basis for living as anything is.

I feel like I should get a bottle of champagne to break across the bow.

Hope you enjoy...
