OK, so the pic's a bit blurry, but... check out this cool little frame I found on the street near Scrap-SF in San Francisco! It's about 5 inches square. I especially appreciate the rusty screw in the lower left corner.

I found this leaf floating in blue near my home. I thought the color contrast and the juxtaposition of nature with man-made was interesting.

A rather otherwordly-looking character who sprang to life when I saw a display of shinguards in the sporting goods section of a Target store. I saw nothing but a long, eerie face and instantly purchased it to make it into a puppet head. His name is not only short for "shin guard", but is a play on the name of my favorite type of guitar, the Gibson SG.

This is my good friend, Gabriel, modelling one of the found objects jewellery pieces that I made in Keith Lo Bue's classes over the weekend. This is made from a bit of concrete that I found which contains some small pebbles. I wrapped the focal bead with rebar-wire and whipped up a necklace (leather cording) for which to hang it from.

Feathers (and there were lots of them) from two quilts thrown away at the roadside.

Prototype of a shackle made from old keys and a bronze bolt.

Touching your goodness, I am like a man

Who turns a letter over in his hand

And you might think that this was because the hand

Was unfamiliar but, truth is, the man

Has never had a letter from anyone;

And now he is both afraid of what it means

And ashamed because he has no other means

To find out what it says than to ask someone.

His uncle could have left the farm to him,

Or his parents died before he sent them word,

Or the dark girl changed and want him for beloved.

Afraid and letter-proud, he keeps it with him.

 

What would you call his feeling for the words

that keep him rich and orphaned and beloved?

Starting the first of the year Illinois law allows farmers to use purple paint to mark their property lines as "No Trespassing".

grunge board and found objects

Wheels and pitchforks and sheepherders' monuments are designed into a most unique environment. Someday Tim hopes to build an entire "Log Town."

 

Turns out there's more than one reason for going to Roundup. Tim Anderson calls it his Little Mansion, and if you like rocks, you're going to like what Tim's Done with the place. It features not just rocks - which he's nailed to the wall - but wagon wheels, horseshoes, pitchforks, washing machines and other things that people throw away. Tim hauls all these found objects with his bike or tractor, and he uses them to decorate both his home and yard with a designer's measured eye. "I call that the Go-Mobile," he says, pointing out a free form metal assemblage that he readily admits "Don't go." His dream is to build a whole town this way, and perhaps find a wife who might help him accomplish his grand architectural scheme.

I participated in a group show last night that was tattoo/burleque themed. These pasties were really fun to make and will definitely be showing up throughout other pieces.
