Paint brushes and splashes! The perfect metaphor for art in action. Who's going to clean up this mess?!
Jeb Sisk
Gourds the perfect organic shape, no one alike, just like the puzzle show. I’m amazed and inspired by this show every time it comes together. Thanks to all the incredibly talented people in this community and beyond who help shape this show into what you see on the walls. Without the 350 plus people who participated this year, you would only see blank plywood puzzle pieces on the walls.
