I make whimsical animals for the garden. Most pieces are welded and forged together from scrap steel parts and painted with rust-resistant primer. The final colors are applied with sign-painters' lacquers which won't fade in sunlight. Some people have asked me if there is any serious or deep meaning to my work. I say, "I hope not. There're already enough serious and deep meanings in the world to keep thousands of art critics busy." I just make stuff that transports me to a happier place where I can hum and whistle.
Art can do that.
