YOU ARE NOT ALONE. Getting a backdrop ready for the dance performance on Friday at Windhover Performing Arts. They are looking very much like extraterrestrials, hopefully less so when I dress them. Stay tuned! #UFO #Alien #windhoverperformingartscenter #SetDesign #TheaterProps

The pride sale was a success. I raised $2,800 for for @trevorproject, the leading suicide prevention organization for LGBTQ+ young people! And I am thrilled to have my work some new collectors :) Thanks to everyone who reached out and helped to promote this. This sale is dedicated to the loving memory of my former nursery school student, Rachel Tyson. We dearly miss her.

LISA @reifycreative:
So who are the artists that you gravitate toward the most? Who are some of your favorites?

DERICK:
I love Ann Hamilton, Christian Boltanski (@fondschristianboltanski), Michael Pistoletto (@michelangelo_pistoletto), Mike Kelley (@mike_kelley_foundation), and Do Ho Suh (@dohosuhstudio).

And for performance, Mierle Laderman Ukeles (@maintenanceartist) & Linda Montano.

I added an image here for each of them. This post feels a bit like a love letter.
