3 deaths and thinking about outer space


It has been a rough summer. I lost three people close to me; family and friends. I am getting back in the saddle and am bringing some new( asked for)  smaller work up to High Country Art in Blue Ridge tomorrow. I have a couple of workshops planned in the fall and have been thinking a lot about outer space lately. Maybe thats why there's some new moons in my latest round of small works.
