I was absolutely delighted to be invited to Nahcotta’s<\/a> annual Enormous Tiny Art show!
In the past I’ve seen friends, acquaintances, and colleagues participate in this show, and I’m so glad I got to participate this year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I did a collection of 6 sculptures that depict an animal with a bird friend riding on their back (or, head on the case of the T-Rex).

What I had in mind was that this collection is a representation of the different connections we can have and experience in our lives\u2014

The connections we can have with one another;
The connections we can have with our place of birth;
The connections we can have with the land we live on;
The connections we can have with our ancestors and heritage;
The connections we can have with opposites;
And the connections we can have with the natural world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There was an early access period and it looks like these all found a home during that time before they were made available on the website, and before I shared about them here.
A big reason why I have this blog and an email newsletter is so that folks know when I have new art\/pottery updates, but for some reason I have it in my head that the work must be available RIGHT THEN AND NOW when I send out the email or else people will forget about it (I feel like that’s partially true).

And I also have it in my head that I can’t send out a preview email, and then a follow-up sharing that they’re now available. I don’t want multiple blog posts about the same thing, and I worry people will just think I’m spamming them, but how is a couple of emails sharing about my wonderful art being available “spam” when that’s the whole point of signing up for my newsletter??
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Anyways, if you’ve got thoughts and opinions on that email me at (sans the brackets): shirley [@] lioninthetrees [.] com!<\/p>\n\n\n
