I totally lucked out this year – the housing that I was counting on fell through at the last minute and I seriously thought I wasn’t going to be able to go to Tucson this year.
Then one night I was reading through my “Tucson Gem Show” Google Alerts and saw a “room for rent” notice from…are you ready…Kate McKinnon!!!
Yes – that Kate McKinnon – of the books, workshops and http://katemckinnon.com/
This is one of my favorite pieces from her Gallery pages – it “is” Kate – structural with a touch of whimsy. A fine silver castle ring with a move-able sunshade!
Kate is known for her book Structural Metal Clay…but keep your eyes open for her latest from Interweave Press – due out this Spring.
…and as if that weren’t enough Greg Ogden and Andrew Thornton are also staying here – they are in town to represent Green Girl Studios (Cynthia just had baby number two and is at home) at the Too Bead True Blue and Tucson Bead Shows.
Did I mention that we are 2 blocks from that show and about 10 minutes from all the others…great location!
OK – just had to gush for a minute -this house is FAB! Good Night!
