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 Music Box Theater survives today as one of the historic playhouses that symbolize American theater for both New York and the nation. Constructed shortly after the end of World War I, the Music Box was built by producer Sam Harris to house Irving Berlin's Music Box Revues.
Sam Harris was a legendary Broadway producer, who first reached fame through his successful partnership with George M. Cohan, and then collaborated with Irving Berlin and later with Kaufman and Hart. Irving Berlin is among the greatest and best-known American songwriters of this century. Together they staged Berlin's Music Box Review for the first five years of the 1920s.
C. Howard Crane was a nationally prominent theater architect when Harris and Berlin hired him, along with his associate E. George Kiehler, to design the Music Box. Besides his two Broadway houses (the Music Box and the Guild -- now the Virginia), he designed legitimate theaters and grand movie palaces in cities across the country, and later in England.
The Music Box Theater represents a special and important aspect of the nation's theatrical history. Beyond its historical importance, its facade is an unusually handsome Palladian-inspired design.

Most Box turtles I see here are black and yellow. This guy must be Halloween ready as he had much more orange than usual on his head and legs.

possibly rodinal, but i was already breaking the rules by using delta 3200, so i might have stuck with d76.
This candy box shaped cake has an edible lid, it hides hand-made chocolates. I designed the rose to look like my husband's favorite t-shirt design from Dom Rebel.

This box was made by Lucia Kleinhans Mathews at The Furniture Shop, a workshop opened by Mathews, her husband, painter Arthur Frank Mathews, and entrepreneur John Zeile Jr. in 1906 following the San Francisco earthquake. The firm produced both handcrafted decorative furniture and decorative arts. The flat composition of conventionalized floral motifs, landscapes, and figures rendered in polychrome and outlined in black is characteristic of their work. This particular box was made as a gift for Lucia Mathew’s brother and sister-in-law. The inscription on the underside, “A poppy for each year,” accompanied by twenty-six poppies and a list of dates, is perhaps a reference to the years of marriage shared by the couple.

This complicated version of the box project we had to do was a little difficult due to the fact that getting the 3d box set up right was a major pain. It was hard to tell if I was putting the picture on the inside of the box, upside down, on the right side... there needs to be a better way of distinguishing what side I'm on. Other than that the project went smoothly and I think it turned out pretty well.
I never noticed the Bird in the box when I took this shot it was only when I checked I noticed the bird was in there. Tree Sparrows second clutch in this box.
