6″ x 8″ canvas on panel
The most beautiful paintings are Nature’s own – this is my impression of an evening sky I once saw…

“Small Treasures”
Never cease to be amazed! Check out the current online exhibition – “Small Treasures” – on Crafthaus. It is wildly fascinating!
This is my submission to the show, a small bamboo container 2.5″ high x 1.75″ wide. Read more about this, and all the other artist entries at “Small Treasures 1” on Crafthaus online.
Santa Fe Respite
Almost canceled it due to flooding on the east coast, and in my studio, but decided to get outta town for a week – destination Santa Fe, NM! It was a great adventure hiking and climbing, flea marketing, gallery hopping, pueblo touring, and tram-riding to the top of the Sandia Mountains in Albuquerque just before flying back home to Pennsylvania.
Still ripping off floor and moldings in my studio, dehumidifiers going non-stop, can’t wait to get back to the easel…
“Piece Progressions” on Crafthaus online
Miriam Rowe curated an interesting idea for a Crafthaus online exhibit – she asked artists to take a series of photos showing the evolution of a creation from start to finish. Click here to see for yourself the wide range of talent and materials – and all that goes into a work of art!
My 6-slide “Piece Progressions” is of a bamboo mosaic from selection of bamboo poles, to cutting and detailing, to finish work titled Falling. It’s listed on the Crafthaus page under Norine Kevolic.

“Bamboo Vessel”
Bamboo vessel
2.5″ x 1.75″ bamboo, cherry base, sycamore lid
I have quite a nice selection of wood varieties in my workshop, assorted scraps that fellow woodworkers have saved for me. And now I have the perfect idea for combining them – these small containers!
I cut this piece of bamboo on an angle, and figured out a pleasing thickness for the wood caps. I sanded through the outer skin where bamboo meets sycamore lid and cherry base, leaving the node area in its natural state. The lid is shaped to fit inside the bamboo about 1/4″ and is an interesting piece of wood in itself. I sand and sand until the edges feel like a natural extension of the bamboo.
This one is not for sale, but I’m working on others…
