Comment by Margo Kopec on April 10, 2012 at 5:25am: If anyone is interested in Commedia dell'Arte, Baroque Dance or Design, we have workshops in Florence, Italy this summer. Each year we have participants that come from around the world and absolutely love their time in historic and breathtaking Florence. The food isn't so bad either! More information can be found at www.goinspired.com or facebook Go Inspired.

Comment by Wayne Harjula on March 31, 2012 at 2:09pm: I attempt to include my children's creative ability also. Good representation of your process, glad to see you have an appreciative audience, also saw your pictures on http://https://www.facebook.com/designdautore

As a pleasurable distraction, I may also finish a stop animation today made on ipad but edited with final cut on desktop because my fingers are too clumsy with the touch screen!

all the best.

I donated one of my earlier sculptures for the event & happt that my work will be shown with such great names as Yoko Ono & Mick Fleetwood who also had given their art for the benefit.

Comment by Mark Langan on March 31, 2012 at 12:45pm: My art can be quite time consuming and involves many time upwards of thousands of individual pieces that have to be cut, dry fit and glued one piece at a time. While creating a recent sculpture for a client in California (Eco-Logic Brand) I decided to do something that was not obviously new to most people but new to me. I placed a digital camera on tripod and took progression photo's of my art being created from start to finish. When completed I had the assistance of my daughter who took them and animated them set to a music score. The result was a cool video that I posted on YouTube and allowed me a means to show future clients another way that they can market their commissions with me aside from just placing on a wall. So far so good, and the past few businesses that have contacted me were very much interested in the concept. Take a look if you have a chance...
