We're taking a quick break from the studio and heading to Puerto Vallarta, Mexico, for a few days. I'm looking forward to relaxing on a beach and reenergizing before all the holiday madness begins.
Although we can not attend this year, I wanted to mention a show our friend Paul Gordon is hosting in Martinsburg, WV, call...ed Friends In Christmas. He and a few other close friends will be selling their Christmas works in the studio on November 14th.http://www.friendsinchristmas.com/

Last chance to grab something from Rucus Studio before Halloween!
For the first time, I'm listing one of my original works on eBay. It has been a very busy year and keeping up with orders and requests has made it tough to offer anything outside of the shows. This is my last available piece before Halloween, so I though...t it only fair to make her available to everyone.
This piece is number three of three. Number one sold on The Best We Can Do challenge in September, and number two sold at Halloween and Vine.
The auction is only a 5 day listing. Thanks for looking and Good Luck!

Rucus Studio Still trying to catch up after a wild time at Ghoultide on Saturday.

Saturday was a soggy day for our event, but electricity was still in the air. Before the doors opened, I had a chance to walk through the two buildings and look at the finished displays. I was SO impressed with everyone's work and the care they put into showcasing it all. ...

Rucus Studio All packed up and reading to head off to Northville for the 3rd annual Ghoultide Gathering. Looks like it might be soggy weekend, but luckily the art is all inside the historic and charming buildings of Mill Race Village. We'll have tents up outside for those who plan to get in line early. Hope to see you there

Just had a very nice visit and lunch with Suzanne Myal of Artistry of Poland. Suzanne approached me a month ago to design a glass ornament for her company. The prototype is in production and will be shown in September. Below is my illustration of the Traditional Santa. My design is based on an antique German candy container.
