new edge....all art





what is your "edge"?
i have been thinking mine is the art of making everything art. homelife, worklife, spiritlife. here are pics of new visual art pieces created recently for greater delight on the planet by ela and leah. plus one of kairos giving me the "oh mom!" hand and reminding me to just "change hats" if i need new perspective.
below is a sweeeeet publication by a friend. check it out if you need something uplifting!

kiss of the sun....summer fun

these are a couple pictures from the national sacred dance guild festival at which i taught and performed.
with my cohorts in fun, pictured, anita bondi (PA) and dana lupton (GA), we pulled together a humorous piece called
"ElevaTOR Grrrrlz". kairos came too. this was her 16 week picture.

new art new season

hmmmm...
been feeling like i haven't been exercising my creativity lately. sleep deprivation.
in actuality, in reality, ela and i have busted a huge move these last months. i've been teaching at conferences with kairos in tow and doing some stained glass. ela has been working on a public sculpture, just installed last week. now he's working on a custom art railing. and we even squeezed in a show at the arts in nature festival.
(check out the amazing organization run by nancy whitlock naturec.org )

here's some of that art hot off the welder and solderer:
