Ice Studies
The circular works and pyramids were created using
unsweetened Kool-Aid™ poured into plastic molds.
They were photographed at 6am with Mount Blanca
(Colorado) in the background. The patterns were pleasant
surprises. Some are similar to bamboo leaves. The
red/blue piece was created by breaking the ice and adding
a different color and letting it re-freeze. "Icon" and
"Ice Rings" were frozen puddles. Several of these works,
along with the Gravel Studies, were part of a solo show
at Arizona Western College in January 2006.
