Twenty-fifth Series: See Me Color Matching My World, edition 100.
Armed with a pantone book, my little notebook, and with a nod to Spencer Finch I set out to specifically identify the colors I come across. I took photographs of scenes and then noted the time, date, and location. Then I PMSed (color matched) the most interesting color in the scene. Sometimes that hue is the dominate color, sometimes it is a tiny accent or an accidental color. These works consist of a 3 ½ x 2 inch glassine envelope with a color specifier chip attached to the lower right corner of the outside of the envelope and silver glitter on the lower left corner. Inside is a photograph of the scene and on the verso a second image of the scene and a second specifier chip with the title of the series, the edition number, the date and location of the photograph, and the PMS match description. The envelope is sealed with a little sticker of a photograph of my eye. These works will be placed between December 15, 2010–January 29, 2011.

Twenty-fourth Series: Little Monsters, ed. 13
You know those great 19th and early 20th century neo-Romanesque / Gothic ornaments of faces and gargoyles you see on the buildings all over New York? Love them!! I have been known to climb up to the upper stories of nearby buildings just to get a look. I imagine them patiently watching the city evolve and coming to life when we are not looking. So I gathered together a selection of these images and some of their antecedents and made them all into little monsters by adding mouths, tongues, and bindings. These works consist of a 3 ½ x 2 inch poly bag, red wrapping paper, Japanese paper, string, thread, ribbon, sequins, and beads. And while these works look great tucked away in their baggies they are also wonderful when removed so you can see what is inside! They will be placed between December 15, 2010–January 4, 2011. Did you see one? Tell me!

Twenty-first Series: ARTFOREVERLOVESEEMETELLME, edition 10. This little series is the result my discovering, staring at, and researching various Yayoi Kusama works. I am a huge fan of the obsessive nature of art making. I get caught up in the inception of the project, the defining of the goals of the work, the rigorous gathering of the materials, the intense happy almost mindless creation of the work, and the release. In this mode I decided to make a tribute work of my own to Miss Kusama the ultimate obsessed artist. These works directly reference her airmail sticker series. Each collage consists of a 2 x 3 ½ inch poly bag, stickers of the word ART in various fonts, colors, and sizes in 5 layers, punctuated with a drift of silver glitter. On verso is the signifier word, title of series, edition number, and address of the blog. Signifier words for this series are: accumulation, fireflies on the water, happenings, infinity, mania, kusamatrix, obsession, polka dot princess, repetition, and self-obliteration. These collages will be placed November 26-28, 2010 in New York. Did you see one? Tell me.

Twentieth Series: First Homage to Joseph Cornell.

I particularly adore Cornell. Of all his series some of the simplest and amazing are his galaxy or constellation works. The edition will be 10. They consist of a stark adobe window through which a dark dark night sky is viewed sprinkled with stars individually and in clusters. So I decided to make my own galaxies as my first homage to Cornell. The work consists of a round plastic box 1 inch tall by 1 1/4 inches in diameter with a slide-on lid. Inside I have brushed the walls of the box with gesso to approximate the adobe. Beyond that I have painted the indigo sky speckled with stars. A ceramic face was placed in the lower right corner and a drift of sand and one bead in the bottom. On the outside sealing the box is the information label with the title, edition number, and blog address. On the verso is a magnet as these works will be placed on metal. Did you see one? Tell me.

Sixteenth Series: seeme(fluxme)tellme, 50 works created. "Fluxus artists think play undermines the seriousness of high art in its humor and irreverence and encourage participants to celebrate everyday actions instead of making and viewing static, valuable art objects. Fluxus games are more complex than simple and more fraught with meaning than mere insignificant amusement. On the other hand, you could simply read the instructions, get the joke, and laugh." This series celebrates two great Fluxus shows at MASSMOCA and MOMA . Collages placed August 26-September 30, 2010 in New York. Each collage consists of a 2 x 2 inch glassine bag, a tiny dice, and six instructional cards in grey and white. The instructions on the cards are borrowed and stolen from various sources ranging from my mom, to Jenny Holzer’s truisms, to the Dalai Lama’s Instructions for Life. On verso are the closure ART sticker, the instructions, written number of each work, and the email address. Did you see one? Did you play it? Tell me.
