This was my first painting, done in high school. I was fascinated with surrealism at the time.

I was learning how to use a knife rather than a brush; Christa liked the result so much that it now hangs on the wall.

I have always liked Brancusi's sculpture. This table is inspired by his work. The grain of the wood is magnificent, but it doesn't show up well in the picture.

Etched glass pannel for winter decorations.

Christa and I made these out of socks for our friend's baby.

Although not really a work of art, there is a good story associated with it: A couple of days after I first made the Snow Monster, someone knocked the head off. I replaced the head - and patched it with a generous amount of water, which quickly froze to an icy weld. The following day, christa heard a yell and laughter from outside. Looking outside she saw a car containing a high school aged kid laughing at his cohort who was standing in our yard next to the snow monster holding his hand in pain. Apparently the Snow Monster had his retrobution, for it stood standing as they drove off.
