Doof World
One of the great joys for me when I was young and my family was in the car and on our way to our mountain retreat, were the roadside stands that people built along the road to attract us into stopping and buying what they were selling. Some people went out of their way to create an enchanting worlds that beckoned to me as we sped by. Those roadside stands were in my mind as I thought about what type of venue would create an interesting environment to house the Doof Museum. Using the model train making skills I learned as a child, I recreated in H.O. scale, Doof World; A gallery and studio with a visitor picnic area. This piece was part of the Walnut Creek's Bedford Gallery's Diorama show in 2008. |
