Opus One Hundred Thirty Two is ready for delivery

Posted by The Artist on October 18, 2010 · Leave a Comment 

Last summer I was invloved in a fundraiser in McCall Idaho called Charlie’s Garden. I sold two pieces that night. I delivered OpusSeventyTwo to Bill and Suzanne but the piece was too wide for the location they wanted it to hang so I agreed to create a smaller version of the weaved copper sculpture. OpusOneHundredThirtyTwo is the culmination of that commision. I tried to stay true to the mountain sceen but I used my own personal input to create something that was original and not just a copy of OpusOneHundredSeventyTwo. I will be delivering this sculpture to McCall on Friday morning and hope they are as pleased with it as I am.

Charlie’s Garden 2010

This was a great even. It was my first time being involved in this event but it was verry well organized and perfectly suited to the artist who wants to give back. I am already planing on being a part of this auction next year I think I will spend a little more time in McCall with my family though. What a great town!

Bill and Suzan with OpusSeventyTwo right after purchasing it

Bill and Suzan purchased OpusSeventyFour at the auction. I took it over to their house after the show and we installed it. Turns out it was too big so we agreed to have me create another piece just a bit smaller. With all of the commission I have lined up I will have to make it in early Sept and deliver it back up then. Tough I have to go back to that beautiful town to spend another wonderful week end. Thanks Bill and Suzan for your trust and the support of such a great cause.

Mike and Tamara right after buying OpusNinty (Happy Anniversary!)

Tamara was checking out at the end of the auction and got into a conversion with Suzan about what they had purchased. That is when Tamara decided to purchase OpusNity for her husband. It is their anniversary so she bought it. I am so glad to have been able to help out with the McCall Arts and Humanities Council. Charlie’s Garden was a wonderful night and I will defiantly be back next year.
