A vertebre we found up on the mountain (probably deer) with a Mexican tigre mask attached and feet added. Lots of acrylic paint. A fun guy

It's a glove actually that was floating in the fishing harbour at Vizag. But it sure looked spooky!

Been getting a lot of questions about the tin...so here is the story behind my 4 A Month pieces this month.

 

The titanium on the first piece, "Holly's Necklace", came from Holly Gage. She shipped it to me nestled in this tin. So thank you, Holly, for providing the source of inspiration for all of these pieces! (P.S., I had already cut out the first piece before I thought to take this photo!)

Assemblage, barn wood frame, drift wood, found object, foil, beads, copper wire, pine cone seeds, acrylic paint..... SOLD

Found in a parking lot outside of the mall, I'm gonna make this baby into a lamp!

I'm rendered speechless at this one...an amazing find...

I'm doing a postcard exchange with 2 friends. Our theme this time around was "found objects" I found a row of these carnival tickets on the seat next to me on BART (commuter train) I felt very lucky. :-)

This series of resin pendants were inspired by a sheet of reproductions of vintage matchbook cover art. I thought it would be really cute to pair the matchbooks with actual matches and embed them into resin

 

They are made from brass with Ice Resin and various found objects, brass components, bits of paper, match sticks, and glass beads. The resin is crystal clear, and very reflective, and amplifies the collage inside the brass pendant with amazing detail. Unfortunately, they are so reflective, they are a bit hard for me to photograph, but I love each one dearly!

 

This pendant was made from a raw brass frame pendant, which was heated with flame to give it interesting coloration. Some of the pendants in this series were also hand domed with a hammer and dapping block. The pendant was then carefully filled with the paper and found object bits and covered with a water-like layer of crystal clear resin.

This sculpture is unfinished. The plan was to install a digital clock in the body, but I think I'm going to do something different to finish it.

Notice anything that's missing?

Just about 5 years ago today, I was on assignment in Shanghai. The stint involved staying in country for about 3 weeks at a time. Which meant weekends wandering the city with not much to do, but I took up photography to fill the time. This was a tableau I saw in a back street market. #meanwhilethewifewashomewiththekids

For some reason the idea of posting flyers for a charity dinner on a trash can does not strike me as a good idea.

 

I had a breezy wait on the next train, sustained winds during the noon hour were 45 mph with gusts of 60! One almost knocked me off my feet!

Odd place for a fish fry ad

The Gerhke Windmill Garden is in North Dam Park between Electric City and the town of Grand Coulee. It contains over 200 windmills made of found objects. They were all built by Emile Gerhke during the 1950's and 1960's.
