Some new stuff...and an update for those who care......

First off...I made a piece today just now called 54 Headstocks.......I had so much fun doing this that I had Amy join in and draw several of these headstocks...it turned out great ...this is collage on chip board with colored pencil and ink and glue and laserprint......check it...

54 Headstocks--- (collage with ink drawing)

also this drawring with a sculptural element..I made this to test an idea for a steering rack....


Thought Process-Steering for three wheeled buggy bike. 
I found that the fulcrum of both the fork and the handle have to be spaced relative to one another such that the radius of the fork yoke is equal to the yoke of the steering column.....and then I figured out that my knees would hit this anyway.......




more in a bit...right now my finger hurts .....



I sliced my left first fingernail clean off while chopping onions way too fast last night.....But...

I found my fingernail on the cutting board with some fresh skin still on it....I'll superglue it back on later like a lee press-on nail.......

My prints are featured at the Fe gallery in Sacto all month...there are 50+  different etchings using many different shades of inks in color......I have to thank Danny Sheible for the hook up ..the Fe gallery has alot of metal sculpture and an impressive collection of hammers






You all should go and spy this place...


ok good...bye now.....
