Desert Dairy Farm Maquette by Susan Roden

Close-Up of the Model for the Desert Dairy Farm Residency

Maquette height 11 1/2"

This is why I've been missing for over two months. And all thought

I was getting into trouble huh?

Well, I'm slated for an artist residency at The Desert Dairy Farm

(Desert Dairy Farm) this upcoming February and in honor of this

wonderful gift, I wish to build a sculpture emulating the natural

environment and habitat of the desert. The intended piece will nearly top 7',

be a three-sided wooden structure topped with a cow built out of recycled

materials. I will build - with Dave's assistance in fabricating - and paint

the structure prior to the residency and then install while there.

To help fund the project I've created a Kickstarter project that was

launched last night and only runs through January 16th. Any funds received

above the stated budget will be donated to the Desert Dairy fund to aid

future residents.

BATTLE OF THE BRANDS! CIRCLES + A STAR 6" x 6" pastel 10" square archival white matt, glass + black frame $295 + $15 insured priority shipping Monday is roaring up quickly and you know what that means . . . Battle of the Brands with donuts and cupcakes! Slinging going on from the East Coast to the West Coast . . . what a sticky mess! Sure Kelley MacDonald will be slamming me with a jelly donut . . . or two or three stacked oh, so high! But wait . . . also Mary Sheehan Winn has jumped into this ruckus . . . and shown her sportsmanship but tossing little munchkins into the ring last week. What's a gal to do? I say sit back and catch a couple of these tasty morsels flying bye. Yum!
