Person who is bundled up dressed for Alaskan weather bends down on a glass littered dump beach with arm held out to pick up a piece of glass.

Hand is holding two pieces of seapottery. One is blue and the other is beige & imprinted with the word Alaska. A blurry glass littered beach in background.

🌊 What you might not know about me is in addition to being a writer I gather garbage from our island’s old dump beach to make art. 👩🏻‍🎨 In Europe & other places they call this “mudlarking.”

The process my fireweed and antlers went through yesterday. This is a part of a huge commission series I can’t wait to share more of.

This is a photo of me seated in a chair and painting a red canvas with hundreds of white circles of all sizes. I am wearing a red wig, a red shirt with white circles on it and black shoes with white circles on them. There is a mannequin of a torso that has been painted red and covered in white circles. This is an ode to the Artists Yayoi Kusama. She is known for her use of millions of dots in her art to symbolize the universe that infinitely surrounds us. The painting is part of the “Mural Project” that takes place every year at the Kenai Art Center. Each artist is designated a portion of a large canvas that extends around the whole perimeter of the gallery. A theme is chosen for the show and artists can interpret it as they like with their work. Thanks for reading. Diane

In the background is my contribution to the Mural Project at the Kenai Art Center. A large red painted canvas covered in hundreds of white circles. The installation and performance is an ode to the contemporary artists Yayoi Kusama. Thanks for reading. Diane
