Just finished filming on Desperate Landscapes

My sculpture "Ballet" was the star of the show for the filming of Desperate Landscapes, a DIY Network television show. The episode should air in February 2011. I'll send out updates when I know the date.

Ballet was the finishing touch to the total yard makeover. I can't show any photos of the makeover until the show airs, but let me tell you, from 7:00am to 3:00pm the yard went from BAD to FANTASTIC.

Large Wall Sculpture for Incline Village

I've been working on a large wall sculpture for a client in Incline Village, NV. A 7 foot by 3.5 foot abstract of playing card suits. It's looking great. Cold Rolled sheet steel with backing. Will look great in the dining room.

I should be installing it in 2 weeks or so. Will look great in place.

I am working on more of this type of work, in HOT rolled steel with my own completely abstract patterns, patterns that I create on the computer with a pen tablet using Adobe Illustrator.

I can't wait to get another sheet and get something great going.

Contemporary Crafts Market in Santa Monica

Coming up on November 5, 6, and 7 is the Contemporary Crafts Market in Santa Monica. I'll be in space #164. If you get a chance to come see me, be sure to go to http://www.contemporarycraftsmarket.com/ to get your free pass.

San Francisco Art Gallery

Boy it's tough out there. seems there are thousands of "me" out there looking to get their art into a gallery. I was counting on the galleries to contact me after they found me on the web and then beg me to show in their space. Fantasy 1 scrapped.

Well I spent an entire day going to 30 galleries in San Francisco and only found 2 galleries that were to my liking. There were so many galleries with Picasso's and other odd named famous people that it actually got redundant.

The galleries that I chose had a wonderful selection of NEW, EXCITING artwork. This refreshed me from the previous 28 galleries full of OLD STUFF.

Well, I left my portfolio, reluctantly, with one of the galleries (because they would accept it) and moved on.

I just know my work is the bestest ever art sculpture, ever (GRIN).

Someday San Francisco will come calling - and I'll for sure answer.

New work to show you all out there
