I am surrounded by talented friends. Lynn Scholl, a creative force in art and the landscape architecture field, recently participated in the "Dog & Cat Show" at The Skinner Gallery in Sacramento. Lynn specializes in assemblage and mixed-media art and created two outstanding dogs out of an array of found objects like typewriter keys; air filters; washers; light bulbs, wood and metal. What you and I might see as junk, Lynn sees as treasures and puts them together in ways we'd never imagine. Here's a photo of Lynn standing next to "Borg Dog." This piece sold on opening night.
This next photo is Lynn standing next to "Ozone" -- an adorable little guy whose torso is made from an air filter. I love him!
Lynn was also the featured artist recently in the Examiner. Check out this fantastic article:

Way to go, Lynn -- I can't wait to see what unique little creatures you come up with next!!
Thank you JJ! You are so kind to make me a blog star! I am lucky to have such a talented and generous friend.
