Terrarium Pieces for May 3 Art Loop
This Friday I will have my new little terrarium sculptures on display for the Wilmington Art Loop at Bellefonte Arts in Wilmington, DE. The opening is Friday evening from 6-9pm and my work will be on display for the remainder of the month.
Here is a little insight into how I create these little sculptural landscapes…
Floral foam is cut to the right thickness and shape.
I spritz the moss with some water (just because it has been sitting in the bag from the garden center for a while). And I easily pull it into shapes to fit the vessels.
This is an extremely messy process.
And each piece is tended to and cleaned up.
Working on a bunch of these together is pretty fun and allows for that feeling if creativity to settle in.
Then I pull out my trays of little terrarium pieces and create these little interactive environments.
Then when done, I get to pack them up and get them up to Bellefonte Arts. They will be displayed on the gallery coffee table (it’s a hip gallery!)
So that is the next step – display…
I’m pretty psyched for this Art Loop. It’s always just exciting to be out and around people that like art too!
OH SO PRETTY!
So cute! They remind me of the woods where I grew up with the moss and mushrooms. Now you’ve made me homesick 🙂
