Description An account of the resource The sculpture is a mixed media of welded steel and grapevine with an elongated and opening form that sits on a pedestal. Th twisted form opens with an upward reaching motion of additional forms. There is emphasis placed on enhancing the natural qualities of the materials. From Karla Mickelson: Night Dancer is one in a series of Night Dancers. A similar piece at the Plains Art Museum states, "... Depicting an anthropomorphic (human-like) figure dancing. Night Dancer is from a series of sculptures entitled Night Dancer. According to the artist, 'The series was inspired by an experience I had looking out the window of my home. A vulture appeared, soaring above the property in a very beautiful and lyrical manner, catching the air currents ... a dichotomy occurred to me. There was an interesting tension created between the beauty of form and movement, and the sense of foreboding that we associate with a vulture. I attempted to capture this dichotomy in the work.' " The wood is grape vine trunk from my cousin's vineyard in Fresno, California. We made a trip out to visit my cousin Sandra and her husband, Jon Marthedal. On arrival at their home Jon was in the process of cleaning out old and dead wood from the vineyard. There was a large pile that he was going to get rid of and Duane was mortified by the thought. He combed through the piles and pulled out several pieces that we shipped back home. The grape vine trunk appears in the Night Dancer series as well as in other sculptures. We have been to my cousin's home twice over the years and picked out grape vine trunks to bring home for future sculpture projects. Duane loved the gnarly gestural quality of the grape vine trunks. If there were soft or rotting areas, to harden the wood, he would soak the pieces in linseed oil.

Duane always loved the setting of our home nestled in the woods on the shore of Lake 11. He enjoyed nature and would delight in seeing footprints in the soil or snow. Often, the prints were the only remaining 'remnants of the night." So one would wonder, what kind of creature was attached to those prints? As the creature wandered the woods, he tried to imagine what they looked like and what they would be doing. Lifting its head, the Scent Catcher has just caught a whiff of something on the edge of a breeze. There is both caution and curiosity as the creature tries to discern the scent. Most of the wood was found on our property or on the old family wood lot near our home now owned by his brother, Dwight.

The quality the colors have make them look as though they were once bright but have faded. At the bottom of the painting there is plant life. Above that is a river, where John the Baptist baptizes a bald person. Behind them is a town; here the sky is dark. Two trees grow tall. The predominant figure in the painting is either John the Baptist or Jesus the Christ, who stands half in shadow under the bigger tree, and half in light. His left hand is outstretched, arm in the air, in the light. Above his palm is a cross hanging in the sky. To his left the viewers right people stand, but they are rather indistinct and there are stripes of color, creating fan-like shapes.
