Each year, Gallery Route One in Point Reyes invites over a hundred artists to create unique works of art using a wooden box.
Here are the inspiring artworks they created this year: they range in style from whimsical to poignant and thought-provoking. These photos were taken on closing day, when the gallery organized a live auction for each of this year’s 150 boxes. The proceeds support the gallery’s exhibits and community programs.
Two of the boxes were created by members of our art community: Howard Rheingold (a.k.a. Dr. Rindbrain) contributed an illuminated box called ‘Magical’, while Geo Monley and Meryl Rubenstein made ‘Les Puzzles.’
Members of ‘Pataphysical Studios came to cheer for their peers -- Dr. Really was the highest bidder for Dr. Rindbrain’s piece, which was thus kept in the family. After the show, we all went to Stellina to celebrate over a nice dinner.

The 3rd century Porphyry Sarcophagus that was reused in 1222 as the tomb of Constance of Aragon, Holy Roman Empress, Queen of Sicily and wife of Frederick II 'Stupor Mundi' - Apparently she still retained her long blond hair when her coffin was opened in the 18thC.
En primera fila disfrute esta pelea, fue emocionante verla, pero no se quien sufrio mas, si ellos o yo, pues termine sin uñas, sin mechones de pelos, con la garganta reseca, en fin fue una velada que pocas veces participo, pues cabeceaba, movía mis piernas, me estiraba para que no me pegaran jajajjaa ahh pero en primera fila de mi sala!!
This is my “Black Palm, Satinwood and Lacewood” Ring Box. It measures 3 1/2” x 3 1/2” and is 2” high. There are 72 pieces, both full and half size diamonds and triangles, on this box. On the top there are 32 half-size pieces where it would normally have 16 full size pieces. It is finished in its natural color with 1 coat of varnish brushed on and 3 coats of clear wiping varnish, rubbed in by hand. The pieces are a bit over 3/16” thick, glued onto a Baltic Birch base.
The type of wood is listed on the bottom of the box from the center out. On this box is “Black Palm” from Indonesia. (I cut this wood at an angle to give the black dots a different look.) “Satinwood” from Sri Lanka is a wood with a beautiful golden satiny luster to it. Then “Lacewood” from Australia is a wood that has a nice coppery sheen to it.
This box is all made from very exotic wood.
I made this box in 2004. On the bottom I signed it, listed the wood, and dated it. After the date, the words “Foot Cut” let you know I made it on a foot powered table saw.
It is lined with black velveteen. It has 3 “ring pads” on the bottom forming 2 slots about 2 ½” long, for rings.
This is the ultimate letter box just outside Deepwater NSW. Yes I confess I am a Dr Who nerd, thus the scarf I brought along for the photos :) The Daleks had better not tangle with Dr Who's companion Mumma J!
I've been meaning to a drawing like this forever! The original is all gouache.
You've probably heard at least one version of the song "Little Boxes," maybe the Pete Seeger version, or maybe one of the many covers on the show Weeds. My favorite is the original by Malvina Reynolds.
Little boxes on the hillside,
Little boxes made of ticky tacky,
Little boxes on the hillside,
Little boxes all the same.

Journalling reads: I wish I could explain why whenever I have a parcel delivered, both you and Lukas are both always anxiously awaiting me opening it. Not because you are even interested in the contents, but because you can’t wait to fight with each other over who gets to play in the box. Even at Christmas time you are always more interested in the packaging than the present inside. The part that I find strange is that when Lukas was little he was always using his imagination to make the box into something else, rocket ships, cars, buses and play houses were usually popular choices for him, but you well you just prefer to sit inside them. You park them in front of the television and just sit down and watch tv, Climbing in and out to retrieve various toys and stuff until the box breaks. Strange boy!
Danboard came with us to watch the Louis Vuitton Pacific Series Yacht racing today. He seemed a bit perplexed by the whole event. Elizabeth Taylor says you can only expect a box to understand so much, I think she might be right!

A beautiful female Eastern Box Turtle crosses a busy rural road in New Jersey. The Garden State is the most densely populated state in the country and in turn many of its roads carry unusually high traffic volume. This coupled with fragmented habitat makes Eastern Box Turtles exceptionally vulnerable to road mortality. The Eastern Box Turtle is listed as a Species of Special Concern in New Jersey.
