The Heavy Weight of Pearls A reflection on the assimilation requirements, compromises and obstacles women negotiate in order to claim a position in society. The scale of the sculpture, at nearly twenty feet in length and 85 pounds, stands testament to the power and resilience necessary to succeed. When women adorn themselves are they putting on a costume, a mask, to meet expectations? Can femininity be celebrated without hierarchical consequences? When did a disinterest in ...conformity become an invitation to misogyny? You can see this in person when you register for the studio bus tours by #CraftNow during the #americancraftcouncil Conference in Philly October 10-12 AND at my open studio event October 13 with #POST2019. #andrerucker photography. #woodturning #pearls #sphere #woodsculpture #easternredcedar @moorecollegeart #graduatestudiesatmoore #womensempowerment #craftswoman @craftcouncil #womeninwoodworking @ Maken Studios See more

New in the Dovetail Wood Arts Store & Perfect for Summertime Burning incense is an aesthetic and calming experience...it also helps keep the skeeters away! Say goodbye to the boring, mass produced and uninspired holders. These handcrafted beauties are turned, textured & pyrographed with love and attention to detail #incenseburner #incenseholder #incensestand #woodburning #woodturning #craftswoman @ Maken Studios www.dovetailwoodarts.com

Woodturning is fashionable! This sweet garment got its start at a woodturning lathe...six different printing blocks, three colors of blue, recycled IKEA curtains, embroidery, freestyle painting and an artist collaboration at Echo Lake in Bucks County, PA is all it takes! Many thanks to the fantastic artists that helped raise the bar on this one, Amy Forsyth, Ed Kelle, Carol Vander Dussen Hall, Cassie Flor & ChaCha N’Kole from the SEWcial Cafe.
