The Bartram's Garden project is officially underway.  I went to the gardens last week to gather my wood; the picture is of one of the Silverbell branches I will be carving over the course of the next year. 


The photo was taken by Tara Inman-Bellafatto on her phone before helping me get everything across town to my studio.


I'm still acquiring some of the other materials for my project, but I will be posting updates and drawings as it gets further along.

Bartram's Box Remix

Good news! I have been selected to create a series of work for a show coordinated by the Center for Art in Wood and America's oldest botanical garden.  The pieces will reference the gardens and work of John and William Bartram.  Each piece will be made using wood from Bartram's Garden.  I will upload images as the project progresses.

This is a very petite drawing... a study for a larger endeavor; I alone know where it leads.
