 | She Gazed into her Fantastic Future |
Happy Spring! We are still looking for some sign it is really coming to MN but, technically, it is here. Plus, it's Layl's birthday: the first day of spring!
For awhile now, Layl has been experimenting with lots of new shapes, designs and ideas and is really taking off into new dimensions, redefining herself as a sculptor and reveling in new ideas.
Josh is experimenting too, with a whole new color palette and thinking about larger scale work. Look for some new concepts this year as he works to get into more galleries and exhibitions.
The next big event for both of them is Art A Whirl, on
May 16, 17, and 18th. Mark your calendars!

Tile Project of the Month |
 | Cosmic Tiles in West Des Moines, IA |
Taking the idea of a countertop to a new level, using 6" x 6" tiles. The homeowner came into the studio and spoke with Josh about the look of the Cosmic Clouds and Spots that she loved.
At a basic design level the Cosmic series can be broken down into three concepts: spots, lines and organic forms. Josh can mix those two or three concepts for you, or let them stand on their own. Here's a countertop that makes people smile.
Imagine something so fresh and fun in your home!
