Wednesday, January 21, 2009. With our new house studio gallery finally completed we had an inaugural showing on Barack Obama's inaugural day. Included in the tiny space is a showing of over one hundred photos from the news services from his life and campaign. The gallery was painted blue on the day that he was elected to office and opened on inauguration day. Maybe we're jumping on the Obamania. With announcements of upcoming shows, photos of the current works on display and further writings on the "Art ...

A I R W O R K S S T U D I O: THE ART OF PLAY

Wednesday, June 25, 2014. THE ART OF PLAY. The woodshop at Anderson Ranch. The art of spitting bamboo was taught from the stash of shafts we brought with us. Kite books lined the tables for inspirational idea making as well as a slide talk opening eyes to the art of kites around the world. Each evening after leaving the dining hall we played with the light winds on the nearby golf course as the sun set over the ridge of the western high peaks. A delightful experience!

Friday, January 8, 2010. CATCHING IDEAS FROM THIN AIR. When not playing with the winds we are often inside our studio environment doing works that sometimes confound us and keep us from sleeping. Usually this happens when we have a particular public art deadline for a proposal. Maybe I need to explain this process a bit more. Y constructing a model early in the process and spending a lot of time with it, the vision often comes just at the point of desperation. Some call it the ‘Ah-Ha! We’ve managed...

Thursday, June 30, 2011. Monument to the Lady Kite Flyer). Flying at the Cervia and. Venice International Kite Festivals. There is something grand about Italy. Maybe it’s the embedded history on every wall and each face. Or is it those clear skies and steady winds? When we were asked to come to Italy for two kite festivals, one in a little beach bagno community of Pinarella near Cervia and a second on the Lido di Venezia just outside of Venice on the Adriatic, we jumped at the chance. One might ask how a...

Sunday, December 28, 2014. It was usually a clear day and you could see all the way to the Kansas border or at least to the skyscrapers of nearby Denver to the southeast. It continued there into the mid nineties with a combination picnic gathering, kite flying and tree climbing. to retrieve the kites from the branches. This year we will be flying at our 'Wind Ranch', a large field behind our North Boulder. If you're in the area, please stop by for some hot chocolate and a bit of fun in a snowy field.
