I just visited Keeling Park at 245 E Glenn only to find that I have no work there and never did. I'm also listed as having Blue Steel Bouquet on Broadway. That piece was on private property and it is no longer at that location. I do have a piece at the Tucson Botanical Gardens and one at the Tohono Chul Park, both part of permanent collections. However, I'm not sure these locations qualify for the definition of public art.

It will be fixed. The sculpture in Keeling Park that is attributed to you, "Guardian" is actually by Gonzalo Espinosa. And at the time I created my list of sculptures and locations, Blue Steel Bouquet was still in residence on Broadway in downtown Tucson. I'm so sorry that it's no longer there. Also, FYI, although the talk I gave at the museum was entitled "Public Art in Tucson . . .", it really focuses on any art (sculpture) that is accessible to the eye of the public 24/7. It doesn't necessarily have to have been produced with public funds. Thanks so much for the information! Carol Hi Ned:
