I hope you can make it!

Penguins and the Art of

Spartanburg
Art Museum
200 East St. John St., Spartanburg
SC 29306 USAFor those of you
who may need to contact me in
June, I will be on Robben Island,
South Africa. The U. of Cape Town
has been actively studying and
monitoring this rookery of South
African Penguins since the Treasure
oil spill in 2000 that was so
devastating to the coastal birds
of South Africa. I will be banding
the penguins with a new type of
silicon/rubber tag and doing various
"counts" to aid in building
the statistical database. The
South African Penguin will be
a new species of penguin for me
and I will also be spending time
taking their images. At the end
of my 2 weeks with the project
I will meet with Christina Balch,
my former studio assistant, who
is a Peace Corps Volunteer, Lesotho,
for a week in the Addo Elephant
Reserve.

By taking away our Canadian winter,
it's endangering our very identity,
