<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">I'm moving across the Pacific pond back to my childhood home on Molokai, HI and I need to lighten my load! I will have some of my art on sale that will be reduced by anywhere from 30-70% off of the original prices.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">This is an art sale for just about everyone-whether you're a printmaker, photographer, mixed media, collage,assemblages, etc. There will also be fine art frames, decorative photo frames, hand made papers, handmade paste papers (great for collage work and for those crafters that use die cut machines) specialty papers (large and small sheets), photographic equipment (such as a couple of Polaroid 230 cameras and a SX-70 camera to name a few), roll of brown paper and cutter, lots of things for the mixed media artists-tons of ephemera. All at ridiculous prices-a lot of things are priced at $1.00 and some things are even free (because I couldn't figure out a fair price for it and it just needs a new home!). Books-mostly hiking books for New Mexico (I won't need these on Molokai). Art magazines (these are free). Lots of rusty things (free). The list goes on and on.</span></div>

She will be describing the application process, what her proposal was, how she prepared for the trip and what was accomplished while there, along with stories relating to the day to day experience. Part of the requirement for being an artist in residence is to create a piece of work that will be donated to the site. Pictured (above) are the 'finalists' that Paula presented to the park staff to chose from as the image to be donated. Paula will reveal which one was selected and have on hand the actual piece of art that will be shipped to Hubbell immediately after the presentation.</span></div>

No two scarves are alike in this collection! The color on each scarf is strictly from botanicals where their natural pigments are coaxed out of them by way of a steaming process. Different plant matter was used for each scarf, making them even more unique. Plant matter used was: eucalyptus leaves, ferns, sycamore leaves, oak leaves, red and yellow onion skins, marigold flower petals, Virginia Creeper leaves, protea leaves and chamisa flowers. This process is called eco-printing since the plants impart their print to the textile (as opposed to eco-dyeing). It is also considered to be a natural dying process.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Perfect to own for yourself or to give as a gift-they are not gender specific and is suitable for women or men to wear. Goes great with casual outfits or adding that extra flair to a dressier look-from blue jeans to a board meeting power suit.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
These scarves are all for sale and you can contact me <a href="http://pmondoy.blogspot.com/p/contact-me.html" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">here</a> or <a href="http://www.molokaigirlstudio.com/mbr_contact.php#.ViMeHbRViko" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">here</a> if you are interested. Prices do not include shipping as shipping will vary as to weight and destination. I can only ship to the United States as the cost for international gets prohibitive.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Should you need to launder the scarf, hand wash with a gentle laundry detergent such as Woolite. Line dry and iron on silk setting.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">The visitor's center at the <a href="http://www.nps.gov/hutr/index.htm" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Hubbell Trading Post National Monument</a> now has new permanent exhibit that does a wonderful job of explaining how this trading post got to be and the importance of it. A reception and a traditional Navajo Blessing Way Ceremony was held on Aug. 26, 2015.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">The images that I have posted here might not be in the order it should be (and I apologize for that), but I hope you take the time to read through this and also visit the website as this place is full of significant history-history that we should be aware of as the impact that one man had on a nation and its people.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">One of the 'dangers' for me in having two weeks to myself to create art (as an artist in residence at the Hubbell Trading Post National Historic Site) is that I bring with me more projects than I could possibly complete in that 2 week time.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">This post is a continuation of the previous post where I got the plant matter ready and bundled things up to steam and let the chemistry and natural pigments do their work for some eco-printing aka botanical dyeing.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">This one is a small silk scarf that contained red onion skins, marigold petals and some tea leaves (from the tea I brew every morning). I don't think I got any color out of the tea leaves, but I do think the tannins in the tea helped to intensify the colors.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">There are a good handful of books out there on dyeing wool with Native Plant Dyes. This is one by Isabell Deschinny who is an expert on this subject matter and has taught many others how to collect the plants, process and dye their wool. I researched her hoping I could track her down to talk to her, but all I could find out was that she taught this subject matter at the UNM Gallup campus for many years. I believe she has retired now, but her son, <a href="https://www.facebook.com/pages/Mark-H-Deschinny/112011212160877?fref=ts" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Mark Deschinny</a> has carried on and also makes rug weaving tools and looms. In addition to weaving and selling his work. In fact, he was here at the Trading Post the day before I got here-to drop off some weaving tools to sell (I saw them and they are beautiful!). I guess meeting him or his mother was not meant to be on this trip.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Before I came out here, I was talking to Donna Barnitz who had been here as an artist in residence last year and she was trying to tell me about the weavers she had met and who knows how to dye wool with native plants. She then proceeded to tell me about a plant they call a wild carrot and that it was highly prized as it doesn't grow in abundance in this area, but that it does in Rio Rancho. It blooms in the spring and then dies down by the end of May, but it is the tubers that are used and they can be dug up year 'round if you know how to recognize the already spent plant. In fact, she knew where a whole bunch of it grows in Rio Rancho. Since she didn't know the real name of the plant, she drew me a picture of it. When I got home and looked through my books, I saw that the illustration on Isabell</span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">'s book looked just like the picture Donna drew! </span></div>

Technically, I am not dyeing the entire article of fabric a solid color. I am letting it impart the natural pigment just where it has contact with the fiber. This is called 'eco printing'. I have a <a href="https://www.pinterest.com/molokaigirlart/eco-printing/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Pinterest board </a>that has many examples of eco printing.</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large; text-align: left;">Here's the proposal that I submitted when I applied for the artist in residence at Hubbell Trading Post:</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">"</span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">The relationship between plants and man stem back to the beginning of the human race. Man's dependency on plants have been for food, fuel, clothing, ritual, medicine, dye, shelter, cosmetics and more. Plants, to an extent also have influence on how a society and culture develops and perpetuates. At Hubbell Trading Post, I plan to continue my personal study in this area and to increase my understanding of the role that native plants play in a historical context and current day practices within a culture. In the area of the park, one can find native plants such as rabbitbrush, sagebrush, fourwing salt bush, broom snakeweed, scarlet globemallow, Rocky Mountain bee plant, pinon, junipers, willows and cottonwoods. All of these plants play significant roles in the lives of the Navajo in so many ways.<br />I would like to be able to share what I learn with the public and offer interpretive media by way of producing art in a contemporary style."</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Although I do not know what the piece will end up looking like that I will make to fulfill my proposal, I have a general idea of how I'd like it to be.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">These hand made 'charts' are a way way to educate and demonstrate how different plants can yield color to fibers-be they animal or plant fibers. It's hard to imagine the time that went into making this kind of a 'chart' as one has to collect the plants at the right time of the year, press them and then have wool that has been dyed with the plant matter and create this little weaving to go with it. Should you ever run into one of these, I hope you will have a greater sense of appreciation for what it is and what went into making it.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">These are some of the items I dyed last year (or eco-printed if you want to call it that) with various plant matter. The red in the silk shirt is imparted from the virginia creeper leaves when they turn red in the fall. Fall is the best time to collect a lot of these plants as it is when the leaves have a lot of color and tannin in them. Other plants are best suited at other times of the year. For one to be successful at dyeing with plants, you have to know your plants, what time of year to collect them, how to process it and what <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mordant" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">mordants</a> create which color shifts and also fix the pigment to the fiber.</span></div>

<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px;">Did you know that you can order images from my website and have it framed and matted and delivered to your house in one easy transaction? You can totally customize the frame and mat-or choose to have it printed on canvas. The best part is, you get to preview your selection and change your mind and choose something different! On many of my images, I also offer several sizes to select from.<br /><br />Here's an example of how the "Ravens In Flight" could look:</span><br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Once a month for the past 5 or so years, I have met with 5 other artists in order to critique our work. If you're not in the habit of getting your work critiqued regularly, I recommend it-it's amazing how others can see the 'problems' that need resolving, compositional awkwardness, not enough tonal variety, etc. so readily that you cannot see. It's a non-judgmental and constructive approach. We've all learned and grown so much as a result.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">At one of our gatherings, I was doing a 'show and tell' of an Artist Trading Card (aka ATC) swap that I do annually and this sparked a desire for all of us to create a work of art that we can give to each other. The format/size of the Trading Card easily lent itself to this. The concept is to make 6 ATCs and when completed, we will do an exchange, thus giving each of us 6 cards (as we also make one for ourselves) that can be curated as one art piece by attaching it to a 12" x 12" cradleboard.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">I decided to document my progress on the set I was doing-which is an ode to the degradation of surfaces/deterioration. Rust and surfaces that have the patina and layers of age </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">is something I'm very fond of</span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Another component to this project is the piece that will look like rusty metal. I started with some paper that I cast using one of those styrofoam meat trays as a mold that has bumps on them. When the cast paper was dry, they were then coated with a clear acrylic medium so that the subsequent paint treatments did not get soaked up by the porous paper. From there, I painted it with micaceous iron and did a wash of transparent red oxide over that.</span></div>

All of the acrylic mediums I use are from <a href="http://www.goldenpaints.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Golden Acrylics</a>-my brand of choice. I purposefully did not coat the surface evenly-allowing some of the painted surface from underneath to show.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">On the boards, I created a loose wash with the trans red oxide and went around the edges of the panels with it. Everything has to sit level unless you want things to travel 'downhill'. Using lots of water and going back in over areas I had already done was also key. After I had all the edges done, you can see that the paint seeps into some of the cracks (loving that). At this point, I hit everything with a spray of water which caused the edges to bleed. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">I've been participating in a weekly photo challenge this year on a Meetup Arts New Mexico Group where the 'host' will post the theme each week and one has to take their image during that week and post it. It's good to do challenges like this no matter how advanced you are. Why? For one, the synergy that occurs spurs your creativity in directions you would not ordinarily think of (hopefully). Second, the challenge itself has the same effect-it's like getting a double boost on your creativity.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">This week's theme was, 'out of focus'. For this 52 week meme, I added an extra challenge for myself to do all, if not most, of these challenges on my cell phone. Why? Because it gets me to explore the potential and think outside the box. The 'out of focus' theme gave me a bigger challenge as this is something I would be tempted to reach for my DSLR Nikon D7000 to execute the challenge.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Lots of ways to achieve 'out of focus' with a DSLR-set it on manual focus and throw it out of focus, use a shallow depth of field (particularly effective in a macro shot), use a slower shutter speed and zoom your lens in and out really fast while the shutter is open, or, if you're lucky enough to own a Lens Baby Tilt Shift, you can use that.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">So, this got me to thinking how I could achieve this effect in my cell phone camera (I own a Samsung Galaxy 5). I have Snapseed photo editing ap in my cell phone that can do a lot of things-and a couple of the filters are a 'tilt shift' and a 'select focus'. In the first shot that you see, I took the photo in focus, uploaded it to Snapseed, used the 'tilt shift' filter first and then the 'select focus' filter to get this effect. I did do a final crop (small one) in Photoshop on my desktop because it has a perspective crop that my cell phone aps don't have-they only offer aspect ratio crops-none that 'correct' the perspective.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">You'll like how I did the second image which is the one that I prefer. You can call it a, 'hack' or 'old school'. I took a small clear plastic plate (that I retrieved from the trash at my friend's party to use in my studio as a paint palette), rubbed a tiny bit of petroleum jelly-it doesn't take much-and held that flat up against the camera lens to take my shot. I also used the timer feature in the cell phone camera so that I would have a chance to move the plate around to see where in the smear I wanted my image to be. This is an old school trick for SLR users to soften the effect of an image-they would smear petroleum jelly on a clear filter. Since I didn't want to smear that on my camera lens, the clear plastic plate worked just fine. A small piece of glass would work too. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">If anything, I hope this would encourage you to go explore and play with your cell phone camera-they really are mighty little things with lots of potential.</span><br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Want to know how I created this image? Creating an image like this is a lot easier than you think. If you have a camera (cell phone camera makes it even easier) and a computer, you can do this and it won't take you as long as you think to create this.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Here's how I did it: I took this photo (the roses) on my cell phone-it was a detail from a little girl's dress at JC Penny. I imported it to my computer (I sent it to my email to keep it simple). I then opened up the file in <a href="http://www.picmonkey.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Picmonkey</a>-a free,online photo editing software (can't wait until they have a phone ap version). I actually 'splurge' on the premium part of this for a mere $25/year so that I can use all the features they offer-but you don't have to to get this effect.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">I used the basic editing features to sharpen the image a little more and to saturate the colors just a wee bit. Then, I selected, 'overlay' (hover your mouse over all the icons to see what they are) and selected the sparkling stars overlay. I adjusted the overlay to cover the entire image and then faded it back a bit-and selected the stars to have a color instead of being white. The next item I selected to add to the image was the 'textures' feature-under this section, I chose the 'bokeh' and also selected to 'fade' it a bit. The next thing I did was to add the text. The last thing was to add the frame and I used the 'simple frame' here and adjusted the thickness of the inner and the outer frame and changed the color of the outer frame. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">That's it! From there, I just saved it to my computer in the file size that I wanted. It becomes an image you can upload to anywhere you want AND you can also print it to make it a real card to give to someone.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">There are many ways to do photo editing online with lots of aps to chose from, but Picmonkey is a lot like having Photoshop at your fingertips without the expense and the steep learning curve. Not that I plan to give up using Photoshop-I still do! But, Picmonkey gives me the ability to be my own 'graphic artist' in a very basic kind of way.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Go ahead and give it a try! I'd love to hear how you did (come back and leave a comment here).</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">When my son, John Scott, was about 4 years old, he used to draw a lot. He drew a couple of characters that were so unique, that I had to memorialize it by doing a rubber stamp carving of it. Fast forward 18 years later (he is now 22 years old) and I was thinking of a way to take that image and create a small piece of art out of it. I've been 'sitting' on the components of this piece all year-trying to figure out how to make it all come together, And then, it did. The words, 'hug me Dad' were from a coupon book that he made when he was 5 years old as a Christmas gift to us.</span><br />

<br />I am thrilled that one of my pieces made it into the annual juried Image New Mexico Show. The collage depicted here is of the four images I had sent in. One of them got the 'yes' vote from the jurors. Did you guess which one got in? You can find out which piece got in at the opening reception which will take place on Saturday, July 5th, 2014, from 5-8 pm at the Matrix Fine Art Gallery located on 3812 Central Avenue. #100 A, Albuquerque, NM. Refreshments will be served.<br />During the reception, awards will be given to the photographers who got special recognition from the jurors. I think the best award that anyone can get, however, is the 'Viewer's Choice'. The general public can cast their vote for their favorite piece during the reception (voting typically closes around 7:15 pm). The winner of the 'Viewer's Choice' award will be announced at the end of the award presentations during the reception.<br />Please join me at the reception on July 5th-I'd love to see you! I tell you the story behind the image that did get in.<br />The exhibit will be up from July 1-26th during gallery hours.</div>

<br />
I installed the exhibit this morning-which ended up being a bit of a daunting task since I ended up with more things than I thought I could fit in to the display case. That, along with trying to figure out how to hang the cool 'raincoat' and umbrella my friend, Donna Barnitz had made out of Purina dog chow bags (which, by the way, won first prize a few years back at the Recycle Santa Fe fashion show).<br />
<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Contributors to this exhibit is Tara Cunnings, Sam Garcia, Star Cooley, Donna Barnitz and myself, Paula Scott.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
A lot of the things I brought in are things that I own as a result of buying it from other artists: such as the earrings that were made by Kim Mason, the boxes made by Carol Sanchez (of prints that she made but was not curating for anything), a bracelet made by jewelry artist, Robert Redus, a wind chime made by Laurie Gregg. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
What motivated me to take the time and trouble to put this display together is that 1) I am passionate about recycling and finding other uses for things 2) raising the level of awareness as to the possibilites of what can be done with seemingly ordinary objects. I am not comfortable with the fact that we are such a 'throw away' society and live our lives as though our resources were limitless. I know I can't change the world, but if I can at least get a few people to think differently about what gets cast off, I would be more than pleased.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I would also like to extend a big, hearty thank you to Tara Cunnings, Sam Garcia, Star Cooley and Donna Barnitz for contributing their pieces for this display of art that demonstrates the limitless possibilities to creating and re-purposing things instead of throwing it in to the landfill.</div>

<br />
An annual on line photography contest. Anything red. Nearly anything goes. The only parameters is that it be an image you took and that it had the color, red, in it.<br />
<br />
This year there were 297 images submitted from 41 photographers around the world-from Finland to Albuquerque.<br />
<br />
Initially, the organizers had planned on just exhibiting 26 images in the winner's on line gallery. But, it ended up being expanded to 40 images since the scoring was so close on many of them.<br />
<br />
I, for one, am glad they did this! I did get an "honorable mention" in this contest.<br />
<br />
Here's my image:<br />

At first, I wasn't going to enter...then, a little voice nudged me and I went looking through my image files for anything red. I was surprised at how many images I had that contained the color, red, in it and ended up having fun 'gathering' files to consider for submission. I even hesitated about submitting this one as a red rose seems so, 'oh-so-predicable'. But, it is an image I was fond of, so I thought, why not?</div>

<span style="font-size: x-small;">"Be There": watercolor, wax, oil pigment, mastic varnish. 4" x 4" © Paula Scott Molokai Girl Studio, 2012</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
The above image is a very small painting: 4" x 4" to be exact, executed on an ampersand board. I was experimenting with using watercolor with encaustic (wax) medium. It was one of those things where I'd do one thing (such as the watercolor layer), set it aside and months would go by and I would discover that I haven't gotten any further along with it. I'd pick it up, look at it and think, now what'? Another idea would come to mind, I'd try it, and again set it aside only to have it be forgotten again. It's really a 'lab' for me, this kind of approach where there is no pressure to perform and no expectations of outcome. This is where I allow myself to explore the, 'what if's'.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
The last 'what if' I tried on this was the the <a href="http://www.oldmastersmaroger.com/pages/Mastic-Varnish.html" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">mastic varnish</a>-which is a varnish that was used in the Renaissance as a medium to paint with and to finish a painting with. I figured that since it was used in oil paintings not only as a blending medium, but as final varnish, that it should be OK to use as the final coat on an encaustic work. I am happy to say, that it does work beautifully and has passed the Ellen Koment freezer test (Ellen says the best way to test if a new technique will work on an encaustic piece is to put it in the freezer and if it doesn't fall apart when you take it, it is good to go).</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Although this piece of art is tiny, it will most likely withstand just about anything (except a five alarm fire) and will most likely be around long after all of us are gone.</div>

Today would've been Delma M. Petrullo's 64th birthday had she not left us so suddenly at the age of 60. Yet, in the short time that she lived here in the city of Rio Rancho, she left really BIG tracks! Positive ones, at that. She had an incredible way of bringing people together for a single cause and also had an incredible gift of vision for our city and what it can become. She had thoroughly 'infected' my husband, Mark and I with her vision.<br />
<br />
And, how I wish she were here to see all the positive changes that have been occurring. The Art Commission that she so dreamed of having is now in it's 3rd year. And, I will say, that we now have a full commission (we've gone for more than a year with just a partially filled commission). For the first time, we have people who seem to all be passionate and committed to being a commissioner and that we all are on the same page. It is simply quite amazing.<br />
<br />
In addition, the presence of public art pieces in our city is growing steadily. The latest and perhaps most exciting piece was completed by Matthew Lutz and is called "Gateway to Lupus". Based on the constellation, Lupus, it graces the southwest corner of the UNM West building. Lupus in Latin translates to 'wolf' . <br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
And, the non-profit status that she so hoped for for the Rio Rancho Art Association looks like it is not far from becoming a reality (once and for all). The paperwork was sent off to the IRS last week and I know that all the 'i's were dotted and t's crossed' before it was sent in. That in itself is monumental. The direction of the art association has also been on the path that she originally intended it to go-our community outreach programs are strong and effective. We also have wonderful, new members joining, so the diversity of the membership continues to grow. Most of our venues boast regular sales. A new website is about to be launched.<br />
<br />
Today, Mark and I joined Robert and his friends and family for a small gathering to pay tribute and to celebrate Delma's birthday. Delma now has a headstone at her grave site at Vista Verde Memorial. Now, anyone can go and 'visit' her. The image on her headstone is one of a painting that she had done in her last year. I think that it might have been amongst the last several paintings that she had done before she lost her battle with cancer. <br />

I'd like to think that Delma is still orchestrating things where she is now. Too many 'serendipitous' things have happened along the way since she passed. I don't question them, but I do think that she has had a hand in it somehow or other.<br />
<br />
We miss her like crazy. Mark and Delma used to fantasize how much fun they'd have if they were both city councilors. I know they would've. I think it odd too, that the councilor that was appointed to take her place and then later ran for and won her district has yet to appear at one of the art commission meetings. The very thing that Delma was adamant about (that it was important to have an art commission). It's really odd because it was Delma that had convinced this councilor to get involved.<br />
<br />
The inscription on her headstone is one of the things she said a lot (that, and 'you can make a difference if you get involved').<br />

There isn't really a sense of scale imparted in these images. The 4' x 4' cell phone photos look like they could be bigger than the photo encaustic series!<br />

Which is why it is best to see an art exhibit in person....the show will be up until August 28th.<br />

30 pieces of art will be featured in this one woman show exhibiting the
eclectic and eccentric works of Paula Scott. Paula works in multiple
mediums such as encaustic, acrylic, mixed media and printmaking; with
photography as her base. Often, her photographic works are printed on
substrates that are 'off the beaten path', such as Nepalese paper, pages
of a dictionary and even cheesecloth. Paula interprets images with a
contemporary flair combined with an exploration of 'what ifs'. A 'must
see' exhibit for your summer roster!</span></div>
