This coming Friday is the opening of the Celebration of the Arts show at St. David's Episcopal Church in Dewitt. The Gallery is open from 8 to 10pm Friday evening, and will have hours the following 2 weeks (see their website for specifics). I enjoy seeing the work at this show as it includes pieces from several of the finest local artists: sculpture, painting, fiber, and ceramics, with just a few metal artists as well. Here is one of the pieces I will have in the show. It is titled "What Was Once Lost is Found". I had fun creating the distressed, oxidized finish to highlight the rust and imperfections of my found objects. The glass is a piece I found on the beach in Aruba this past winter. The antique compass still works!
