This year so far has been a busy and very fulfilling one. Among the various projects I’ve recently completed are a pair of tile mounds in my garden. The two mounds, “Contemplation” and “Stargazer” are covered with my own hand-painted tiles as well as found materials such as mirror pieces and glass pebbles. These garden sculptures are a nice place to sit and meditate or to simply relax and enjoy the garden, and they also represent my ongoing commitment to repurposing found materials into art. They will soon be featured in a short video about my garden sculptures that will be produced by the same team that filmed my “Day of the Dead” video (see the November 2010 entry below).
