I have been an exhibitor at this long running show for over 12 years. I enjoy being there with my artworks and communicating with my friends and patrons about sculpture and the world of art. It is a luxury to be able to meet people face to face. It is always a positive experience. If you get the opportunity to attend this summer show, please stop by and visit. There is much to enjoy.
It's just a lot of fun to show work at the Laguna Beach Festival of Arts. There always seems to be something wonderful cooking, whether it's ceramics demonstrations, video film series about art, workshops for children, docent tours, or simply some of the finest artworks in Southern Orange County, California. You can see it all at this upscale seasonal event.
Please check out some of my work that I had at the show. This one is called Shock-N-Awe.
Rockfish Sculptures are very popular. This is the Coral Trout.
The Dada-Bird was also a very popular piece. It is a two headed bird-teapot made from found objects including hot and cold faucets.
One of the subtlties of Dada Bird is the rugged, coarse welds. These were intentionally made to look like an act of desperation. Part of the insane whimsy of the bird-teapot-sculpture is the expressive demonstration of 'Outsider Art'. Sorry if anyone thinks that I am a poor ability welder. It's not easy to get these welds and brazes to be so coarse.
The Dada Bird Teapot is currently on exhibition at Trios Gallery in Solana Beach, CA
