| THE BLUE COYOTE paper mache sculpture. My plans are to make a Buddy Burro book one day. If so, this sculpture will play a part. Made in 2000, its about 3 feet tall. I've worked in a variety of media, wish I had another lifetime to devote to each. |
| TALL TALES FROM A SHORT FRIEND about 12"X16", just a simple BUDDY BURRO painting...notice how Buddy's wooden legs bend |
| CERAMIC FROG About 10" wide. Another of BUDDY'S FRIENDS. |
| I WISH I HAD another lifetime. I would spend it as a Metalsmith. I made this 3-D sculpture of pure silver. It is a tea strainer, and the bottom of the hemisphere is drilled with small holes to allow the tea to steep, but by lifting the stainer, one removes the tea leaves. The holes are drilled to make a portrait of Buddy's face as he looks in the water pool. All the pieces move. The head is constructed to lift up and down, as do the ears, tail and the rocking legs. My metalsmithing teacher was the fabulous Helen Shirk, professor at San Diego State University. |
