Take a peek behind the process of building KINECT. Many generous individuals contributed their time and dolla billz to make this dream a reality. I am humbled. I am honored. I am proud.
The arrival of the tequila distillery barrel in my studio.
Tuning in and gearing up to create a masterpiece in just 6 weeks!
There must be destruction before creation.
The interior of the barrels are charred as the carbon extracts impurities in the tequila over time.
I love stripes and organizing things.
I love getting dirty.
I love power tools.
The barrel rings were integrated into the centerpiece of the final sculpture.
We had fun at the KINECT fundraising party in the JaelahFAD studio.
