SooZeQues Arroyo Junkers and Other Resurrections: I GOT THE INVITATION!!!!!!

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

I GOT THE INVITATION!!!!!!

I'M NOT WORTHY!!! I've been invited "by INVITATION ONLY" to participate in "The Inspired Hand" blacksmithing workshop in May in Santa Fe, held by the extremely accomplished blacksmith master Helmut Hillenkamp. I'm so thrilled to have this opportunity I feel like a freshman who just got asked to the prom by a Senior! My stomach is starting to get all wavy something on the scale of a Sunami! I hope I don't make a fool of myself. I don't know how I made it on the list, but maybe it's that KARMA thing working for me again. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you, Helmut.

PS ~ Thanks go out to MOM for always looking out for me and sending me articles of interest. xxxooo
