Tucson Museum of Art Arizona Biennial '11: Fire in the Belly and Tucson Artist Melinda

filmed by Mr. Arty Fice. There's an art idea I've been working on for about five months now. This ain't no BBQ, although my brain's cookin' with ideas. Here's a hint: Image © 2011 Melinda S. Esparza It's part of a sculpture/installation that I've been working on. It's had me so excited (and sleepless) that I just had to start sharing a bit of it with you. Painting has been tabled momentarily. The deadline for the Tucson Museum of Art's Arizona Biennial is next week. I'm working on finishing the piece and considering other works I'd like to submit. My mind might turn to ashes by then. Almost done with the fire references. Until I can show you the finished piece, enjoy the fire. Light one within yourself--to be more of who you are, to push further into how you approach your work, to allow yourself a voice. And, don't let anyone steal your flame. There!
