. . . and speaking of creative paddlers it’s worth noting that traditional paddler, coach & artist Diane Carr along with artist David Barr have an exhibition coming up at the Marshall M. Fredricks Sculpture Museum from October 3rd through January 31st, 2009.

Diane has quite a resume’ which I’m happily stealing from the Marshall M. Fredericks Website :

(Diane) Carr taught painting, drawing and design at Macomb Community College, Mt Clemens MI; was a painting instructor at Wayne State University; a guest lecturer at Mott Community College, Flint, MI, Center for Creative Studies, Detroit, and Cranbrook Academy of Art. She was painting coordinator at Ox Box Summer Workshop in Saugatuck, MI and Visiting Artist, Wesleyan University, Bloomington, IL

Carr’s commissions include Skystone, an outdoor sculpture for the New Buffalo Welcome Center, MI and Sky Crystals, 4 wall sculptures for 15 ft. x 46 ft. wall at One23 Restaurant, Grosse Pointe, MI. Her work is in the collections of the Karmanos Cancer Institute in the Detroit Medical Center, The Detroit Institute of Arts, Dennos Museum Center in Traverse City, MI, and Southwestern Michigan College, Dowagiac.

Carr’s work has been included in more than 35 group and 6 one-woman exhibits in Michigan and Canada.

For this exhibition Carr has produced a new body of work titled “Sculptural Wall Gestures.”

Funny, the don’t even mention her rolling! Now the trick of course is to get one of my many paddle ninja paparazzi to get that opening night picture!!

Oh, and check out the photo here (the top piece).  Interesting. . . .
