Summer Assignment

Hey, 3-dimensionoids,

After the last meeting, the what-are-we-going-to-do-now committee got together and decided that our first meeting in the Fall should include a “First Annual Merkel-Fish Derby”.   Create a found-object fish over the summer and bring it to the Sculptors’ Group meeting on September 6^th.  While you’re at the beach, collect flotsam, jetsam and used syringes.  If you vacation in the mountains, collect seed pods, pine cones and power-bar wrappers.  If you’re stuck in the city, forage through your neighbors trash for discarded CDs, kitchen implements and Chinese take-out chopsticks.  Then assemble your goodies into a fish sculpture.  There are only three requirements; (1) it has to fit through the door, (2) it has to be safe, and (3) it can’t be like anyone else’ s Merkel-Fish.    David Bradley has kindly volunteered to volunteer our own dear Merkel McLendon (who, by the way, missed the last meeting and is therefore the butt of this event) to judge the entries.  The winning sculptures will be displayed at the Guild throughout the month of September.
