As I balance my life between the cabin in the mountains and home/studio in Apple Valley, I seek inspiration from many sources: and often that means seeing other artist's work. I have always admired Robert Brady's work. He taught sculpture at CSU Sacramento for many years and has very successfully worked in different mediums. During the holidays, we saw his latest show at the Braunstein/Quay Gallery in SF. I am intrigued by his use of wood in creating these long-limbed, Giacometti-like figures.
