"Woof"

Metal sculpture that I made with discarded items found in my dad's workshop: lawn mower blade, plow, tire iron, mixed with other bits and pieces....
Lowe Mill Art and Entertainment district in Huntsville, Alabama. Awesome place to network with fellow artists! On this day, I hung out with Everett Cox (master sculptor!). Everett gave me a lesson in cutting, sandblasting, and welding metal.

"Thumb"

To all of my faithful viewers and readers....I have not lost inspiration. I did, however, almost loose my thumb. A word to the wise...when using gas hedge trimmers....always, always, always, use gloves! Secondly...do not use your hand as a "rake". Third, if you do decide to use your hand as a "rake"...do not "rake" toward the blade! It hurts! After a trip to the emergency room, my thumb is healing nicely...and I hope to soon be working in my shop again in a few weeks. :)
