  • Artist's Proposal
    Gabbert Artist’s Proposal 14th Street Roundabout Page 434 of 1673 Gabbert Sarasota Roundabout 41&14th James Gabbert Sculptor Ladies and Gentlemen, Thank you for this opportunity. For your consideration I propose a work tentatively titled “Flame”. I believe it to be simple-yet- compelling, symbolic, and appropriate to this setting. Dimensions will be 20 feet high by 14.5 feet wide by 14.5 feet deep. It sits on a 3.5 feet high by 9 feet in diameter base. (not accurately dimensioned in the 3D graphics) The composition. The design has substance, and yet, there is practically no impediment to drivers’ visibility. After review of the design by a structural engineer the flame flicks may need to be pierced with openings to meet the 150 mph wind velocity requirement. I see no problem in adjusting the design to accommodate any change like this. Fire can represent our passions, zeal, creativity, and motivation. The “flame” can suggest the light held by the Statue of Liberty, the fire from Prometheus, the spirit of the city, and the hearth-fire of 612.207.8895 | jgsculpture.webs.com | [email protected] 14th Street Roundabout Page 435 of 1673 Gabbert Sarasota Roundabout 41&14th James Gabbert Sculptor home. It would be lit at night with a soft glow from within. A flame creates a sense of place because everyone is drawn to a fire. A flame sheds light and warmth. Reference my “Hopes and Dreams” in my work example to get a sense of what this would look like. The four circles suggest unity and wholeness, or, the circle of life, or, the earth/universe.

  • A FAMILY FRIENDLY GUIDE to Services for Milwaukee County Special Needs Children and Youth and Their Families
    A FAMILY FRIENDLY GUIDE to Services for Milwaukee County Special Needs Children and Youth and Their Families Project Equal Access for Special Needs Services for Youth INTRODUCTION Milwaukee County offers many programs to support families of children and youth who may have special needs. The child or youth must have a significant disability which is a physical, mental, or emotional limitation which seriously restricts the child’s ability to carry out basic living activities such as self-care, learning, communications, mobility and self-direction. Children and youth from ages birth to 22 can receive support services to help them live at home with their family. Families can access certain services from different agencies throughout the County. We hope this guide will make it easy to locate those services from the different places in Milwaukee County. The guide will provide brief information for each of these programs and how your child can be found eligible for these programs. The agencies that you may connect with include Milwaukee County Disability Services, Milwaukee County BHD Children and Young Adult Community Services and Wraparound Milwaukee, Katie Beckett Program, and the Social Security Administration. When you work with these agencies, you will be asked to provide information about your child such as whether your child is on Medicaid, has a diagnosis from a physician, a psychological evaluation or an individualized education plan (IEP) at school. This Guide is designed as a resource to increase awareness and access to services for Milwaukee African American children with a disability and their families. It is part of DRW’s Project EASSY, Equal Access for Special Needs Services for Youth.

That year she received her first camera, a small disposable one to use on the family vacation. At first she randomly clicked the button, not giving much thought to what she was doing. When her father examined her blurred images and aimless shots, he advised Michelle to look through the lens and think about what the resulting picture would look like. The next day Michelle saw a family of ducks, and remembering what her father had said, she lay down on the ground and waited for a duckling to waddle near her. That picture still hangs on her bedroom wall. 2 Now, six years later, Michelle was attempting to capture a sunset for a local photography contest. She groaned as storm clouds rolled in before the sun had a chance to cast its vibrant colors across the sky. 3 “Mom, I don’t think I’m ever going to get this shot!” Michelle complained, putting her camera equipment on the kitchen table and sighing with exasperation.

  • Supernatural: Gigantic, Flowing Aerial Art
    SKYNET BY PATRICK SHEARN OF POETIC KINETICS BY PATRICK SKYNET Gigantic, flowing aerial art, larger-than life glass plant sculptures bloom at Atlanta Botanical Garden ATLANTA (February 17, 2021) – Seeing is believing when it comes to a duo of art exhibitions coming to the Atlanta Botanical Garden this spring. One features a gigantic, immersive aerial art installation floating through the treetops, while the other showcases larger-than-life glass sculptures of blooming plants towering among the flower beds. SUPERnatural: Aerial Art in Motion, Glass Art in Bloom, opening May 15, features a custom-created “skynet” billowing in the air above Storza Woods like a flock of multi-colored birds, while over-scale glass floral sculptures blossom throughout the more formal gardens. The skynet, called “Dream Flora”, is an experiential aerial sculpture by Patrick Shearn of Los Angeles-based Poetic Kinetics, known for its large-scale works of public art; the contemporary glass art is the creation of Seattle artist Jason Gamrath. “Our guests have come to expect spring exhibitions of extraordinary sculpture, and the combination of these two displays of contemporary art, which in both cases are over the top, is going to blow them away,” said Mary Pat Matheson, the Garden’s President & CEO. “On one hand, they will get to explore these gorgeous over-sized glass sculptures of colorful orchids, pitcher plants and lotuses in the Garden and on another level to lose themselves in the fantasy-like movement of a flowing ribbon of color overhead in the woodlands. Together, the two make for a super-sized showing of art that Atlanta has never experienced before.” “Dream Flora,” on display through September 19, is composed of maker.
