The business of psychology, which I am in full time, is a wonderful and fulfilling career. As stated on my website http://www.glassartdesigner.com I feel the psychology of art is an amazing aspect to contemplate (when one has time). The Chicago School of Professional Psychology is a great place to work because they allow you the freedom to explore yourself in the sense of being a "whole" person, not just as an academic or an employee. Because we have a number of faculty and staff members who express themselves through art in their free(er) time, I was invited to take part in an art exhibition that will be made up entirely of TCS staff and faculty.
Although some of my colleagues and students are aware that I do glass art, there have not been many opportunities to display the work that I have created. This poses a bit of a problem in that I would like to show some of my better work. As much of the work I do is comissioned, the art itself in the hands of the owners. So in addition to the other recent works I've posted I've been working on a couple of "special" items for the show that will take place on the 23rd of this month! So, guess what I'll be doing this weekend? Yup, another exciting Saturday night with me playing with my glass (hmmm, that almost sounds inappropriate) haha.
I also decided to commit to doing the Ravenswood Art Walk this year which will be occuring October 3rd and 4th. For those of you in the Chicago land area it would be a great opportunity for you to come out to the Ravenswood corridor and see some amazing artists at work AND purchase their art!
I get to submit 3 pieces in the Faculty show so I'll be snapping pics of the pieces I decide on by Sunday night. I have 2 near completion but the 3rd one is still taking shape in my head, which means I'll have to do some quick work!
I'll keep ya posted with pics and thanks for supporting my Blog by taking the time to view it!
