Hi Nisa! Thanks for the compliment! I really dig your slide array pieces and your play with negative space. Your photos that you have up here are REALLY good. I was in Chicago too, bummer we didn't run into each other. I was the one who brought the awesome weather! We gotta meet in person sometime. I'm so bad with picking people out of a crowd, especially at Sofa with all the sparkly objects. If you ever see me about, smack me and say hello. Or, say hello and then smack me if that sounds like more fun! Didn't you used to be in C-U? School or work? My first job at age 16 was in Bloomington, IL. I worked at the Double Nickel burger joint. Is that 50's shack still standing? Cheers, MDB

hi, thank you. and yes that brooch was more of a one time thing, we had an assignment based on a group of mexican artifacts. i did a few more pieces that were similar but it never resulted in a body of work that i wanted to continue exploring.

Hi Nisa,
I just went to Chicago last weekend to set up the show. It is the mixture of old works, but in the different setting, and larger. I hope you can come to my opening! Let's catch up!

That would be great - from looking at your work I have a feeling we have some corresponding interests! If you are ever in Portland Oregon, please look me up!

Hi Nisa! Thanks for your comment on "Deliberate". As it happens, I am a big fan of your work! I usually pronounce "Deliberate" as in "the jury deliberated", but it's really up to the viewer.
Cheers,
Miel

Hi Nisa,

How's your semester going? Thank you for cheering me up as always. Those circles in your favorite piece are not brass but some kind of stone from pyramid(not sure if it's real but the package said so) I would like to get your advice regarding my thesis writing. Can we meet during this coming winter break? I will be in Champaign around whole break. I will take you to your favorite resturant :) Talk to you later.

Hugs,

Hi Nisa,
Thank you so much!!! Thanks for also noticing the display--I went around and around with what I was going to do real kitchen tables, fabricated kitchen tables, etc. Happy that I decided to go with the simple counter top approach. By the way---your work is stunning! I enjoy the combination of scientific and the beauty of nature>
Keep in touch.
Warmly, Renee

Hi Nisa!
Yes, I was glad to find you on here! What are you up to these days?
And yeah, New Paltz. This is my first year. I've slowed down on posting new work because I have this crazy concept and I've made a lot of problems for myself to solve...so until I feel like the work is more resolved it is just kind of sitting where I can stare at it. :-)
Will you be going to Philly? A bunch of us are going since it is so close to us. I'm glad too because I missed going last year.

I just love this piece. I'm curious about the title: "Deliberate" Is that deliberate, as in "you did that deliberately," or as in "the jury deliberated"?
