50 Clocks for my 49th Year!

With the anticipation of my 50th birthday in October 2020, I have decided to give gifts of art to 50 friends and family.  I chose to make them clocks, one a week for 50 weeks in the year leading up to my 50th, to represent the time we have spent together and to show them my love and appreciation for that time. I've made 17

A Permanent Installation in the City of Lafayette

I started making 8ft tall Steel Catrina Ladies in 2013 because of the story behind them, you can Google Jose Guadalupe Posada to learn more. The story or message is that you can be wealthy and wear the finest clothes with top of the line accessories, but you can still be "dead" inside and have no soul if you aren't careful of what you truly

Lady Catrina has a new home! (for a year)

Last weekend I installed Lady Catrina in front of the Broomfield Fire Department Headquarters, Broomfield, Colorado. The City of Broomfield submitted a sculpture request on Café (Call for Entry, an online National system for art entries) in July 2014.  The request was for an outdoor sculpture to be submitted into their "Art for Awhile" program, on loan, for one year.  This gives the artist public

Breastplate for a Granddaughter!

The strength of Steel in a breastplate. I recently sold one of my favorite pieces, the Breastplate, to a customer who bought it for her granddaughter.  The grandmother thought her granddaughter needed something that symbolized strength and something that had a classy girly flair!  Yup, that's exactly what the Breastplate exudes.....  I was so happy to hear the "why" behind the purchase, it's

Lucky Bird’s Nest

Summer is finally here and I’ve been spending quite a bit of time outside in the great outdoors. I’ve discovered a new bird’s nest on the outside of the shop and this inspired the research of superstitions and folklore’s about bird’s nests.  Without going into too much detail, I discovered that it’s good luck if you find a bird’s nest built on or near your
