SCROLL DOWN TO SEE THE NEW "PORTALS" BODY OF WORK! The Katrina Collection is a series of mixed media assemblages which incorporate storm debris from Hurricanes Katrina and Gustav. There are approximately 1000 pieces in the collection to date, so most of the pieces are in the archives, located on the right hand side of the poage-just scroll down a little bit.
Old Town refers to Old Town Bay St. Louis. This beautiful beachfront community took a heavy beating in Katrina, but the spirit is still strong. Less than six weeks after the storm, Jenise McCardell and her husband Mark had mucked out the 18” of mud which was left behind in their building at 220 Main Street, made temporary repairs to the damaged roof, and were open for business. The Artists at 220 Main had the grand reopening during the Second Saturday Artwalk Celebration in October, and we have been exhibiting our works on a daily basis ever since. This piece was created from a painted and distressed furniture panel, pieces from a picket fence, the top to a wooden crate, wire, and a decorative plaster medallion. 42" x 36" SOLD
