New in the studio—a laser cut on holographic paper, based on my sculpture Ghost Pearls. Looks like I’ll be having a viewing event for the full-scale Ghost Pearls architectural sculpture as an open studio a bit later this year.

No pampin’ last week, I was sick. Looks like this week’s essay will expand on a neighbor’s mysterious backyard sculpture.

Years ago, on a road trip a friend roped me into getting a “reading” from Zoltar—if you’ve never seen one, that’s the entertainingly-creepy-looking animatronic fortune teller in a glass kiosk that pops up in oddball spots like mini-malls and gas stations—it was so delightful that the printout is still pinned to my fridge. On the way back from Utah yesterday, I happened upon another Zoltar, the whim struck, my latest divination is below. It was a wonderful weekend trip with many moments that give me wings; Zoltar seems to think big stuff is headed my way this month; what little I know for sure is that I’m incredibly grateful for so much good fortune.
