Al Again

Al Again

Al is one of the most active members of the Creative Workshop.

Sometimes we have to wake him from his after-dinner nap at 2:15 but when he is awake he is READY.

We are trying something new for us--again using pizza boxes or other cut-down cardboard boxes, we are strengthening them with iron wire and several layers of papier mache and then adding color from torn magazine photos. yarn and bright bits of cloth. We then coat the whole thing with epoxy.

It is fun, easy. and I think we are getting some interesting visual effects .

I enjoy tearing pieces of magazine and handing them to Al, He dips them in paste and applies them to the growing work in the place wherever  he thinks will be the best fit.

Two of our most recent works have been accepted for show at the Escondido Municipal Gallery--which has always been supportive of our Workshop.
