In The Studio
We have So much going on in the studio lately as many of the artists in residence here have been busy creating many new and exciting projects!
Jenifer Bechak has been working with our new oxy acetylene torches creating some beautiful bent metal work for a project she has been working to complete.
Olof Berner and
James Sichak have been collaborating together for a cool project using some City Wood, salvage wood from industry and some driftwood recovered from our rivers. It's still early on in theis project, but you can see the great flow between these artists already.
Nate Lucas is working on a couple
projects here as he works to complete a coffee table for one client, and a set of oars for another client.
James Sichak has been working to create some new jewelry items, preparing for the regional festivals season, and working on Urban Tree Forge projects in addition to his collaboration with Olof Berner.
I have had a couple projects going on myself in the studio.
First I started working on a branch section from the Smithfield East end Cemetery sycamore tree and have been working this into what may be deemed my version of 
Bench 2009.
With my second project, I had another great opportunity to demonstrate with the Children's Museum for two days, and used the time to get things moving forward on the Moon River headboard sculpture after a full year of drying. I am hoping to complete this as 3 Rivers, a sculpture, in time to submit it for consideration for the Pittsburgh Tech Council's June 15 Minute Gallery show... submissions are due in two more days!!!
I wonder if this would be considered suitable as public art?
Still lots to do to get this one ready! Better get back to this or I won't have anything to submit regardless of what it is!
