Thank You & "Pieces of Bill" – a Virtual Exhibition

On 09, Oct 2010 | 2 Comments | In Et cetera | By man-admin

Someone To Watch Over Me  2010  Bill Buckingham   Marble

Thank You, Everyone


We have been very touched by all of your kind words and thoughts in the past couple of days.  It feels quite wonderful to know that the mosaic world — and we mean that literally — thinks so highly of what we knew was a very special human being.

Please know your words have been of great solace.   There are no plans for a service or memorial in the near future; celebrations of Bill’s life will occur when we’ve all had a chance to breathe.  If you would like to send a card or note now, please feel free to do so:

Pieces of Bill – A Virtual Exhibit on Facebook

Bill loved nothing more than to see Mosaic Rocks! materials used in contemporary mosaics.  We thought that it would be a fine way to honor Bill to create a space where folks could share those mosaics with each other.

Voila! a Facebook Group entitled “Pieces of Bill.”  Think of it as the Mosaic Rocks! Virtual Exhibition.

Because we are focused on so many things right now we’ve kept this opportunity simple; hence the use of Facebook.  We’re sorry if you are not a member — perhaps you could get someone who is to post your photos for you.

Go.  Load up those photos.  Tell us who you are and what’s in them.  Heck, throw in an artist statement and contact information if you’d like.  Bill would love nothing more than to see an artist make a sale because of him.

Just go to Facebook, type in Pieces of Bill and you’re there.

Love,

Michael and Nancie
