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 ...
Last month in September, my latest mosaic/steel sculpture was beautifully installed in Downtown Alamosa for the annual outdoor art exhibit ARTScape! The Public Choice Voting https://docs.google.com/…/1FAIpQLSeDLXCq…/viewform is open for the 2024/25 Alamosa Artscape which just keeps getting better and better each year! I hope that my Dreamcatcher last month and I hope it’s doing its ...

Flashback to this time last year at the 2023/24 Install and de-installion of two of my sculptures seen below. The above photo of me and the boys is from December 2023 during the 1st Friday Event in downtown. Thank you to the awesome Alamosa Public Works for your help, friendliness and above all skills ...

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. Because the sculpture is installed in rural Mosca, Colorado where jack rabbits abound, I thought a rabbit theme for this interpretation would be fun and appropriate.
I create large outdoor sculpture as my secondary passion and have expanded from beyond mosaics to large, welded steel forms. These works are exhibited each year in juried annual art exhibits though out Colorado as well as permanently installed in the 40 acre sculpture park I am building near the Great Sand Dunes National Park. Below is a peak at my new series of sculpture called ‘Bloom’.
With my art, I take inspiration from what I find most beautiful in my surroundings as well as my life experiences. With my sculptures I aim to add beauty and interest to new places where the passerby can feel uplifted, inspired and discover something new. My sculpture “Bloom” is rooted in the intricate folk art ...
My ceramic sculpture “Lotus Emerges” has just been installed at our 40 Acre Mystic Valley Sculpture Park in Mosca, Colorado near the Great Sand Dunes National Park. Last year it was installed for the Annual Outdoor Art Exhibit ‘Artscape’ in nearby Alamosa – the central city of the San Luis Valley.
