Tim was asked to do a christmas tree ornament for the Springville Museum of Arts Religious and Spiritual 25th annual show. The ornaments are being auctioned off by silent auction to raise money to continue the show. He also entered in a new piece "Tree of Life". This turned out to be one of my favorite pieces. Unfortunately, we were in such a hurry to get it there, we have no pictures of it. The piece won a merit award which was rewarded with a certificate at a nice ceremony at the opening reception.
This weekend we are sharing a booth at the cowboy poetry event in Heber. It looked like a fun event and a lot of fun vendors and entertainment. If you want a fun day, take a trip to Heber.
We are a part of the Oh Sweet Sadie show which is next weekend at Daybreak SoDa Row.

Oh Sweet Sadie
Artist's Statement
As an artist I see beauty in everything from a car part to a unique piece of wood. My goal is to make art unique and fun, something with a WOW factor. Something you want to bring everybody to see and that you won't find any place else. my art also has a contemplative side, one that makes you think about here the materials came from and their history, or what made the uniqueness and beauty of the wood. Each sculpture has a story to tell.
The materials for my sculptures are found in old tools, car parts, motorcycles, farm equipment, wood, and whatever else inspires me. One of the things I enjoy is being able to take something that has been discarded or deemed useless and bring it back to life. I enjoy creating everything from human figures to animals, giant bugs to miniature dinosaurs, fairies to dragons, from realistic to abstract.
I have had classes in perspective, drawing, sculpture, and ceramics. I take from the world around me, libraries, museums, galleries, my mistakes, experiments, and other artist's experience.
I am a desert rat raised in Mesa, AZ and then living in Southern Nevada. i love the outdoors and the activities the outdoors provide. We moved to Utah 4 years ago and are enjoying the seasons and the colors that go with them.
Enjoy!!
