honor (part 5)

it was quite a wait for installation. there were many huddles and decision making sessions in regards to placement. all in all, i'm very pleased with where the museum chose.

this shot is special to me- never thought i'd have a sculpture in a garden at a museum next to albert paley. amazing.







proud moment



end of installation- not too bad for first thing in the morning.




i must give kudos to my loving and supportive partner jamie. i think it's pretty clear how she feels about my work.


i've had many exciting events in my career as an artist; being commissioned to make a silver egg for pulitzer prize winning author of "the color purple", alice walker; as well as, opening my business. but i think they may have just gotten trumped.
