As we talked the director said something that I’ve been thinking about ever since. She said, and I wish I could remember…

a verrry big day
As they say “it takes a village” to put an artist’s artwork out into the world safely. Especially a “Verrry Big Project”. My public art project is 4 feet tall by 8 feet wide. It took a whole community. The top photo is of a few of my “village” people. The ones not pictured are…
