'Fresh Buds' for The ContemporAry Austin 'Five x Seven' event

3/4/2014

 
I created ‘Fresh Buds’ especially for The ContemporAry Austin’s Five x Seven event. On Wednesday, April 2, hundreds of original artworks on 5” x 7” canvases will be available for sale for $150 (or $100 for museum members).  Tickets for this fundraiser can be purchased via the museum’s website. 

Outliers -- such as sculptors like myself -- are also encouraged to submit artwork to the Five x Seven event.  I kept my piece ‘roughly’ within the sizing guidelines.  Outliers -- such as sculptors like myself -- get a little more leeway on this point...

Shameless plug ALERT:  At last year's event, my sculpture 'Chirp!' was amongst the few artworks "pre-selected by a Center Circle member."     

I forged 'Fresh Buds' on my 25-lb. Little Giant power hammer, using 1/2” square stock.  This sculpture's in keeping with a ‘botanicals series’ I’m working on as of late.  

A gallery exhibit of my botanically inspired sculptures is on the horizon, so I'll keep you posted as that develops.

We are so pleased and proud to have been able to be the first to grab the tag at the horn tonight. This piece will have a place of honor in our art collection.

All the best,

Michael Kell
