Latest work, a Tortoise i call "Determination" you have to see his face in person to understand the name :)

Latest creation: the Red Bellied Wood Pecker.  Originally I was basing the design on the Nutall's wood pecker, but the negative space works much better for the Red Bellied. Sounds like i need to make a Pileated wood Pecker next!

from paper to sculpture! My latest installation for some great folks here in Florence. They needed some decorative hooks/hangers for an ornamental gun they had. Very fun to make and it all really came together.  *note the second image is a photo shopped picture I made to better relay my vision to the client

Some progression photos of a current commission I am working on, almost ready to deliver! It is a visual screen to go on top of a fence. *click on photos for larger images

 

Had a great show at the Sisters Harvest Faire, thank-you to everyone that stopped by to admire and those that took some of my work home with you! 
Hope to return next year

New installation of a Blue Heron, blessed for it to be home in such a beautiful place. A happy shoal of salmon and trout also were installed here.
