Love Field on the floor in Montreal

I was up in Montreal last week proofing the mosaic for Dallas Love Field.  The piece is so big I had to proof it in sections.  It is looking marvelous! Another great collaboration with the team at Mosaika!

I'm also very excited about the placement of the 3d tiles we made here in the studio.  Check them out below.

Clearing the way for an orchard

We spent the last weekend clearing away a section of the yard for my new citrus orchard.  It's the prefect time of year to plant citrus.  I'm excited for next spring and summer!

NEW!! Google Map of Public Art by DFG

Inspired by San Antonio's X Marks the Art and the Public Art Network annual conference, I now can share a google map pin pointing accessible public art projects I have created around the country.  I hope it inspires more people to venture out and view the artwork in person. Enjoy!
