A Walk In The Clouds - Invoking Wonder, Show Invite

Excited to announce my upcoming event:


A Walk In The Clouds - Invoking Wonder by Jennifer Lonack.

A unique art event – guests are invited to kick off their shoes and take a stroll through the first indoor grass filled gallery... sip fresh squeezed lemonade and meander through The Art of The Clouds.
The show features a first look at Lonack's illuminated, colored-cloud sculptures along with other uplifting and whimsical treats.
Evening activities also include live performances by San Diego’s young, talented, singer song-writer James Morris and a chance for visitors to sculpt their own fluffy creations.
A percentage of the sales for the evening will go to the NTC Foundation.
Barracks 19 Gallery 101
One night only December 7th – Starting at 5pm.
2640 Historic Decatur Road, San Diego 92106


Dare to Reuse Contest Update



Happy to announce that the students (4th grade 2011 - 2012) at Old Town Academy's Dare to Reuse Contest winners are on display along with the other 9 winners and 15 finalists at the New Children's Museum in San Diego now through the 31st of January.
One of the pieces (my son worked on) is on the show's banner - fun.

I believe all the kids art deserve to be in the show...

The class was invited to attend a breakfast reception and comp tickets to the museum for the whole family.  I was out of town and missed it, I hope that they have a great time and are inspired to enter again this year - I can't wait to see what they come up with!

Ode To A Poodle




poorest of thee - Simon
  thine endearing,   enduring,
          whitest of canvas

does do steppest
   too closely to artist

and must  thusly   to pose,

with oh so saintly of patience

and one’s
 endless,
    abundant
courage...

Random Act of Ar~ting - Wood in Grass, Liberty Station, California, USA


Tonight for the NTC at Liberty Station's Fall Into Art kickoff...

The third sculpture from the pieces of wood that were used in Coronado and Pacific Beach...

I came across some scrap wood left over from a skate park ramp project at the YMCA Krause Family Bike and Skate Park in Claremont, and loved the shapes - I immediately envisioned them as a sculpture.
The pieces are cut from a mix of 1/2 and 2/3 inch plywood and I knew, together, they would make a great piece.

The previous two installations were in the sand, grass was a welcomed challenge today and the wind came out to play which plays really well with some new slender pieces that added an undulating movement to the piece.  
Again no hardware or adhesives were used. 

I love the opportunity to work with balancing the pieces - structurally as well as visually (yum!)
Working in the round, offering the viewer a multitude of perspectives as they walk around the piece, is really exciting too.
