Joseph Campbell states that one of the roles of the artist is the
“mythologization of the world and the environment”.
I am pretty sure that I have been doing that most of my life.
All my mythic creatures come with a legend card - the beginning of their story which they hope will continue forward when they arrive at their new homes.

Thank you to all who were able to make it to the Paradise City Arts Festival over Memorial Day Weekend. Joy and inspiration were everywhere - in the art and in interactions with everyone! May your summer be energizing and filled with wonder. I'm looking forward to seeing what new creatures will show up in the studio!
(Don't forget to check out the sculpted leather workshop I'm giving at Snow Farm this Fall! - Space is limited. )
