Uncle Lumpy's Down-Home Art Blog and Pancake Emporium

Q: Uncle Lumpy, will I be able to afford pancakes next year?

A: Well kiddo, lemme just impart some wisdom on ya right here.  Now Uncle Lumpy cain’t be tellin’ the future or nothin’, but he can tell you that most often or not, things have a habit of working out on their own, so my advice to you is to just keep workin hard and I’m sure that things’ll be just fine and you’ll have all the pancakes you need.  And if not, then I hear acrons can be used to make some darn tasty hotcakes.

So in honor of the mosaics show in DuPont Gallery, “Inspired by…., Contemporary Mosaics and the Historical Tradition,” (which by the way, is amazing- if you have not checked it out it’s open until December 7^th!) the featured artist of the week is Susan Crocenzi. Crocenzi is a California-based mosaic artist whose work is inspired by nature, poetry and literature. In her own words, Crocenzi creates “bold mosaics that incorporate unusual materials such as tempered glass, handmade polymer clay tiles and semi-precious gemstones.” She has studied at The Institute of Mosaic Art in Oakland and has been featured in Mosaic Art Now Magazine.
