cleaning the studio...

...and other adventures in art

Apparently I was not finished with The Daily Bird.

I’m donating a piece titled “The Daily Bird, Reconsidered”, to the Museum of Art and History, Santa Cruz, for their yearly gala fundraising event auction, Stars.  The event is held on December 11 this year.  Click here to go to their website for event and ticket information.

My piece will be in the live auction.  It’s made up of 30 encaustic birds, in a 5×6 grid.
