Fall is Coming ... Time for some Nesting!

In addition to working away (still) in the studio, I'm preparing to teach a one-day workshop at Harcourt House this Fall, with my friend and fellow artist Stacey Cann.We will be facilitating the creation and placement of some random acts of art ... in particular, the building of nests from repurposed materials and the "bombing" of the downtown area with these little gems. The goal is to have some  real fun working with these beautiful forms, to create little sculptures that say a bit about how each of us conceive of nests - and ideas of home, safety, comfort, and so on - and then share our creations, in the hope that someone will come across them in the future, and pause ... perhaps smile, and enjoy the moment the work has prompted.The details are:NEST BUILD & BOMB WORKSHOP Harcourt House Annex, 10211 - 112 Street Edmonton ABSeptember 8^th,  9am – 4pmSchedule:9 am – noon – Nest Building1 pm – 4 pm - Nest BombingCost: $110 ($80 members)Supplies included.
