Studio in the Snow

In case anyone's wondering why I haven't been posting much recently, here is one very good reason...I can't actually get into my studio right now, on account of the foot or two of snow between the house and the barn/studio. Due to drifting & snow falling off of the roof, the amount of frozen snow in front of the main door in the center of the photo is probably over 3 feet...I'm hoping the thaw comes soon...

The Further Adventures of Jürgen Waxweiler

My German sculptor friend, Jürgen Waxweiler, (whom I met in Jerusalem at the Museum on the Seam) just sent me a photo of his latest exploits. He was up in Canada in Winnipeg making sculptures out of snow, which is a cool (pun intended? I'm not sure) thing to do. Here he is with a large foot. Whilst the cold & snow are keeping me inside & not making much art, he is definitely out & about.
