catawompus: (adj.) askew; off-kilter or unexpected

What do a hang-gliding bear, a robot fashion show, and a penguin on a cell phone all have in common? They are all part of the fun at CATAWOMPUS (a show of slightly off-kilter artwork) at Heather Green Studios in Old Bisbee.


I'm really excited to feature paintings by Jeff Henley, one of the profs at Cochise College. His work is often ironic, is sometimes whimsical and sweet, but is always interesting. It's kind of like getting a glimpse of what's inside Jeff's head (but not so far down the rabbit hole).

To compliment his sense of humor, I will have my "pinguin" sculptures on display. Created from actual bowling pins, the penguins are mischievous, sometimes cruel, and will surely tickle a funny bone or two. You will not want to miss this show, as a few penguins have already been sold (meaning this event will be the last time to see some of them in public)!

 CATAWOMPUS is Saturday, April 9th from 5:00 to 9:30 pm, and is a free event open to the public. This reception will also have an interesting soundtrack and food spread for the evening . . . Bring some friends, and take in some culture (albeit slightly skewed). It will be a (bowling) ball!
