Wagner Witte3 Gallery

Where Word & Art meet and spark,
An arc across the sky ensues--or so it seems--
Until the cosmos intervenes.
Though 'writ on water' we may be,
What delights are here for thee!

And one of those delights, for me, has been the chance to exhibit a broad selection of my sculptural works in the Wagner Witte3 Gallery, in downtown Easton, on the Eastern Shore of Maryland. Thanks to gallery co-owners Jen Wagner (an awesome and energetic mosacis artist) and Kathleen Witte (a woman with a quick eye for "what works"), and longtime friends Steve Leocha and Renny Johnson, I have felt warmly welcomed. With Steve's excellent advice and ready assistance in arranging the sculptural works  (and with loan of tables and cloths from Sharon Stockley, a WWG glass & metal artist), I was able to stand back, in the late afternoon of December 15th, 2011 ("last year"--already), and say to myself: "Great!" "Best Ever!"




While in Easton, perhaps as prelude to its annual November "Waterfowlers' Festival," when a huge number of visitors converge on the town for an arts festival which features wildlife-related paintings and sculpture, I had two unusual "bird experiences": I supped on goose which I saw shot from the sky, and I watched a pair of bald eagles wheeling in the wind.
