SooZeQues Arroyo Junkers and Other Resurrections: October 2009

My art is an infectious need for me, sometimes a burden but most often a blessing.

This blog is about me and my obsessions, my loves, my need to create and my need of JUNK. I'm addicted to thrift stores, estate sales, flea markets and all roads leading off the beaten track to discover that perfect piece of junk. I recycle old license plates, old shovels, wheelbarrows, saw blades and anything else that's funky using my hand held plasma cutter. I love working with steel, sculpting, photography, watercolor painting, stained glass, and turning everyday utilitarian objects into art. Junked cars ~ I will always veer off the path to search out the beautiful wrecked Arroyo JunKers throughout Arizona, New Mexico and anywhere else the road may lead. When I'm not searching for those JunKers

Sunday, October 4, 2009

Have you every wondered what happens when a client invites a lot of vendors & artists to display at a festival, but somehow forgets to invite the public? We witnessed this first hand this weekend as we waited for the masses to arrive to buy all our beautiful wares and no one showed up. Although the Art Festival was a real bust the weather was fabulous and I managed to take a few photos and just sit back and laugh at the whole situation. The feel of Autumn is definitely in the air here in Sunny Arizona.
