A large mixed media painting with fan blades protruding from the surface and a stylized painting of a figure soaring through the air.

Victor and the Breezespreader

Fan blades, steamer basket, cassette deck innards, rope, drawer slides, motor casings, cogs, washers, wire, canvas strips, acrylic paint, indian ink.

Victor sails through the sky clutching a bouquet while mech-tech birds dive bomb in their shiny copper capsules. What must the city dwellers think?

 

A box shaped guitar with a stylized painting of a figure on it.

3-string box guitar

Wooden bed slat, palette wood, scrap fiberboard, glue, acrylic paint

For my second guitar, I wanted the simplicity of a 3-string build and the complexity of a full paint job.

Artist Statement

Old, forgotten, and disused objects inspire stories of lives lived. I draw on that imagined experience to create imagery and build something new.
