Winter has arrived here in Pagosa Springs, Colorado where I live. It has snowed on and off for a few consecutive days and each day here feels like unwrapping a new present. The fresh blanket of snow being lit by the early morning light inspires to create yet it makes me pause and reevaluate my ...

Imagine a great wide open space in nature where you can sit back, enjoy panoramic mountain views from an expansive valley floor while as well as outdoor art installations? That’s something that my life and creative partner Kyle Cunniff and I (Kasia Polkowska) have envisioned and have slowly been working on making a reality for the last 6 years.
My take on the ‘American Gothic’ bunny style of course while emulating a 9 year old Kasia as an artist. This is my light hearted take on Grant Wood’s ‘American Gothic’ painting from 1930.

In early September, I completed my newest mosaic sculpture “The Passage”. It is a 7ft tall hand-sculpted door covered in a handmade stained glass mosaic I created with accents of handmade ceramic tiles I also created in the studio. The flower motifs are inspired by the Polish Folk Art ‘Wycinanki’. Below you can see my initial concept for the project. The color palette changed but most of the project stayed true to my vision.
