This is the next sculpture I am currently working on . My inspiration for this one came from one on my all time favorite sculptor Elizabeth Catlett.  Look her up !

Sculpture Art by Marsha Hatcher

I call this one "Daddy's Girl."
This series of work starts with a 20" circle. Why 20" circle you ask?  I'ts the size of my garbage can lid.  Why a circle?  I'll tell you later.

I've been very busy this summer working on some 3D art and can not wait to show off what Iv'e been doing.
I have now completed four more new pieces which I will be posting soon.

A "3D" moment in my career

This is the second wooden sculpture in a series.  I want to turn part of my attention away from the 2D towards the 3D.  Working in the 3Dementional is a little more challenging than working in the 2D.  Each piece I complete is extremely satisfying and I seem to get a little better with each one.

A Brush With Nature

"Lake View"

The Paint Out at the Jacksonville Arboretum & Gardens this weekend was a great opportunity for me to see if I could "Hang" with some of this region's top notch plein air landscape artists.  This was a first for me and I did get 6 paintings completed over the 3 days in "the woods."  37 artists over 3 days created some very beautiful works of art to help raise funds for this wonderful nature trail.  Many thanks to all who play a roll from the beginning to the end to help make this event possible and especially the "Art Buyers."
