Update #34: Finally Part II
Delivery of the books to me is expected between Xmas & Year's End. I will be shipping to those outside of this area. For those of you in the area, we will arrange pick-up dates & times.
I believe the book is now available on Amazon for extra copies.
Thank you all again for your patience and fortitude. And again, I am truly sorry for the delay in getting your book to you.

Project By
Has not connected their Facebook account.
A Buckeye by birth, a Sawyer (resident of Saugerties, NY) by inclination, a Kingstoner by necessity.
Artist, designer, bricoleur, mythologeinist; knitter, needlepointer, acrostic-fiend, reader, and word-lover.
Artist's Statement:
My current work is about animation- or the possibility of it, color, texture, and how creativity can flourish within constraints. Animation in the sense of bringing alive inanimate
materials or objects, how figures articulate. Playing with color and texture for the total joy of giving
those rods and cones a real workout. I enjoy the challenge of working within a certain level
of constraint, limitations in the form of a restricted palette of materials, size limitations, thematic unity; it forces me to be more creative and makes the process a game-and an enjoyable
one at that. I see my work as little theaters, each with its own proscenium, each bristling with
potential.
What exciting news, I'm sure you are so excited to have the book done. Congratulations! I am so excited to see it.
Perfect treat for the holidays!
Perfect timing and a Perfect Christmas gift to myself. So looking forward to receiving the book.
