Some of my art projects.
What could be better than staying up late, with the music playing, a glass of wine (red), a spool of small-gauge wire (with cat swatting at the strands, of course), a mess of beads and paint? Sometimes that late night with wine involves a sewing machine and tons of fabric (many thanks to Patricia and her Nanny for that). Or maybe it's paper or wood or leaves or clay or beans or gems or mirrors. Or a scary disorganized smattering of several of those items together. Glue, in all its glorious forms, is always nearby.

Those blue gems seem to creep in a lot, too.

So. I want to apologize for the need to scroll WAY down to the bottom of the page to see all of the art and design samples on the left. I'm working on that. In the meantime, I've tried to make it a bit easier to navigate by adding "Next" links on each sample's individual page.

Maybe you'll look at this stuff and wonder who the hell set me loose with the wine and potentially dangerous tools and equipment. Maybe you'll like something that you see. If so, let me know! I have these links posted for a few reasons. Maybe they'll inspire some of your own creativity. Maybe you'll want a tutorial or links to other cool crafty sites. Or maybe you'll even want to buy some of this stuff.


the way to create art
is to burn and destroy ordinary concepts
and to substitute them with new truths
that run down from the top of the head
and out from the heart.
Charles Bukowski
1920-1994
