Well, then, I guess that today, I am a snowman...
Denise in Northern California, where there is definitely no snow to
inspire my current project

Art is in the audience. Whether its the public
viewing the work, or the artist himself.

for a long time i would feel bad when I heard someone looking at my work,
thinking, "oooo what a poor soul... " as they read dispair into my work... it
is that mouth that I commonly use, a circle mouth, often with a spiral carved
into it. Some insist that it is portraying sadness, agony, dispair, screams
of anguish.... to me .... they are simply singing... singing their way thru
good and bad, triumphs and frustrations. It took me a while to understand
that people will see what they project onto a piece, and I guess that is what
art is supposed to do, huh?
