resuscitate |riˈsəsəˌtāt|: make (something such as an idea or enterprise) active or vigorous again.
A new year… already? Time to reawaken, revive, renew, resurrect, rekindle, rework, return, restore, reinvigorate, rejuvenate, revitalize this blog, my website, my art, and my body. Having dropped the “blogging ball” for the past six months (I know I’m not alone, that’s for sure), it’s time to resuscitate “Cleaning Up the Studio”, and reclaim the challenge I set for myself a year ago when I began this blog. As a personal challenge, it’s a way for me to up my own creative game and enhance my art practice, while sharing it… A platform for creative interaction, a place to engage and be engaged with other artists, and also maybe a place to step over the edge a little bit. I’m stepping up.

Resuscitation: Bringing back to life. But then, of course, ars longa, vita brevis….

Your website looks amazing- I can see your love of nature. In your installations you use chairs- I have an obsession with chairs-
wondering about the meaning for you.

thank you Eileen..! I did work with chairs for several years, also beds and boats.. all of it had to do with trust, betrayal, broken relationships. [What fun. *not* ] I’m pretty much done with them at least for now..! Nice to see you back!
