This weekend is the last chance to see the spectacular encaustic show at the Pajaro Valley Arts Council Gallery. This show, curated by Wendy Aiken and Daniella Woolf, is certainly a must-see.

Hanging right there on the front wall is a piece by yours truly. This piece, entitled One Thing is Not the Other, sold at the show, and I can honestly say I will miss it because it’s been hanging in my studio for the past few months (seen here on a wall at my Open Studios 2011).

It is 20″x86″, and is done over a photo I shot of a great blue heron at a natural history museum…certainly one of the more unusual taxidermy poses I’ve seen of a heron.

Here’s a close-up of this piece:
