About The Artwork
I was inspired by nature, and my family's teachings about eating food. Fish are amazing creatures, and delicious, we use them for sustenance, and fertilizer for growing food quite often. I made this sculpture as a whole fish that looks like it's cut in half, but then I fit a knife into it, and it seemed to work nicely as a knife stand of a fish that has been cut into. The piece is unpolished, it has no finish, the base is tripod, but its tippy, so you'd have to do something to prevent it from falling over if bumped into. It's a sensitive knife holder, balanced if treated well. I was going to weld it to a round base, but there are so many ways to secure the base, I didn't want to take away from the form of the piece, your going to have to figure it out for yourself if you want it to be more stable, which shouldn't be hard. I'd say cooking oil would be an appropriate finish, or fish guts, as this knife stand could end up anywhere. It's not my decision who buys it, or what they do with it when they do, I just want you to know, I left the piece "unfinished". No fancy paint, no perfectly stable base, it's a magical, yet "Fishy knife stand". Enjoy! :-) ***Knife not included,-(I won't sell sharpened knives.). I do have many unsharpened ones available.

United States
By traveling parts of the United States and a few other countries, I have gained much through lived experiences. There are many places I'd like to visit, and much more I'd like to learn. I have created metal sculptures throughout the years and in various locations. I take pleasure in many other activities such as crafts, trades, research, painting, tagging, writing, thinking of screenplays, hiking, camping, visiting with friends, playing or watching people play music, making art, and spending time with family. I deeply enjoy being connected with nature, growing things, and watching them grow. . . this is medicine in and of itself - soil isn't dirty, we spend time in the dirt to be clean, I believe. I love making organically shaped, nature-inspired, and funky sculptures using steel, iron, and metallic paints. I dream of using glass to incorporate elements of mystery and liquid in contrast to the solid metal textures. I've developed my own methods and processes of carving metal with a cutting torch, while touching my face and head for anatomical reference and to stimulate my imagination. Using this technique, I have carved faces, heads, and mystical creatures inspired by observing the shapes of my own body. I have made furniture and garden art, swords, knives, shovels, garden hoes, fire pokers, scythes, pickaxes, fantasy weapons, and all sorts of things during what I call an experience of "art addiction."
