Phoenix

I did this awesome sculpture in iron of a dove way back in college (1992 or 93)
Alas, all I have left of it is a old 35 mm film negative. Fortunately, the school gave the yearbook a new scanner that has a film negative adapter in it! Maybe I should ask my Farmer-in-law if I can borrow his arc welder this summer.

Driftwood horses

Another teacher recently sent me these pictures in an email. I'm sure it's one of those emails that go around the world. I wish I had a name for the artist or even a location (it sure LOOKS like California to me) All I know is that this is simply AMAZING. "Driftwood Sculptures" have had a bum rap for a long time- sometimes they're kitsch that shows up at craft fairs or tourist curios shops, sometimes they're crafty little things that hobbyists whittle- these horses however- holy WOW! This gives driftwood a good name.
