For my friend Sarah Foss who goes to Nease






Sarah here are some images of my recent(last 6 years) work and activities. The lightbulbs are from way back when we first met around 2004 or 5. They were in a show at the St. Pete Pier in 2005. The guitar with Hank Williams Sr. is also from around that time and was in my show at the APSU Alumni Gallery in 2009 in Clarksville TN. I also play it in the video in one of the older post. The picture of Joey is with paintings that he and I worked on in 2010 when he was 2 1/2. They were shown at Simple G's. We kept one for his room. The picture of me on the ladder is rolling up the mural that now hangs in the St. Augustine Pirate and Treasure Museum where I worked for about a month as an artist with Uncle Stevo and Katherine Marsh in 2010. The mask with nails is from 2009. It's called train of thought and hangs in my parents house in Nashvile. The post right below this one has work I made on Monday and Tuesday of this week. Thanks for wanting to talk with me about my work. You should get an A.
Sincerly,

New wood carvings






Finally getting into the studio and making some art. Here are some 1'x1' scrap wood blocks that I carved over the past 2 days. These are part of a 12 foot column that I'm making for a proposal for a public sculpture in Chattanooga TN.

New work and work in progress






Here is a piece called " Mask for remembering the Spangled Homburg that a Hawk killed at Wedge Oak Farms"
It was in the US Bank show up in Clarksville last month.
I love the picture of the barbed wire grown into the two trees at Cindy's (from Aunt Sister on etsy) where we went for an easter party. The other picture is of a mask in progress at my dad's workshop in Inglewood. I'm starting about 20 new pieces that I hope will be in the neighborhood of the piece I traded to Barb Gibson last year. oops the barbed wire picture is sideways.
