The Other Dale
My recycled work keeps getting attention and since it is reminiscent of Dale Chihuly I like to call myself 'the other Dale.' In 2011, I created an installation for Earth Day at The Orlando Museum of Science, an eight tree forest installation for ArtPrize in Grand Rapids Michigan which was acquired by the Grant County Recycling and Education Center, and worked with areas schools to create this year's Orlando Museum of Art's Festival of Trees entry. Our 12 foot creation won Best of Show!
As a result of my playing with trash, Annmarie Sculpture Garden, a Smithsonian Affiliate in Maryland, invited me to be their Artist-in-Residence this summer. That means I'll be packing my bags and leaving in June. I am so excited create a public installation for them as well as sell my jewelry in area gift shops.
I have a limited number of my wild and crazy bottle stoppers for sale for $25 on my web-site and I'll have them at my upcoming show. What could be better than a stopper that is bigger than the bottle it corks?
Happy Birthday to me and Dale Wayne Design
THERE WILL BE CAKE!
Ten years ago I purchased my first little torch for my birthday. John loves to tell the story of coming home to find me in the kitchen wearing safety glasses, torch ablaze, and glass shards flying. Thanks to you, I have developed a recognizable style (has anyone asked you "is that a Dale Wayne?"), an internet following, local venues (most recently The Morse Museum gift shop), and national attention for my work. Wearing your jewelry to special as well as everyday events, passing along my business card, and giving my jewelry as gifts has made the work I love possible. As a special 'thank-you' I would like to offer you a coupon for 10% (one for every year we celebrate) off of your purchases. To take advantage of this on-line simply enter "I like Dale!" at check out to have 10% taken off of your order. At my upcoming show, just mention this offer at check-out.
Since I have 'gone green' and no longer mail invitations, please help me get the word out by forwarding this blog entry, sharing it on facebook, and 'liking' my page!
