(above) "Rocko" gets a friend. Alliance, Nebraska, November 2007: I made the return trip to Alliance to visit my brother and family, and perform some more artist-in-residence projects. The first order of business was to create another mascot for the high school. Last year's "rocko" the bulldog went so well that it was decided to create a female companion for him. I created the armature for "Rochelle" in my brother's workshop and once again the art classes at the high school layered the sculpture with different types of paper. The last coat of white is our way of recycling old test papers and such.  Thank you to Medelice Wirtz for the photos of Rocko and Rochelle. BIG Thank you to The Carnegie Arts Center for once again sponsoring my appearance.

Another Fine catch!

The "school of fish" project continues to swim around the country. This has been one of my more successful programs, and as you can see from Bev's completed piece above, the program is for kids of all ages. I'll be writing more about the fish in future updates. Thank you to all who have made a fish!
