Ah, finally!!! I finished this one a couple of weeks ago, probably even three weeks ago. It's all mild steel, which means it rusts, which is something I didn't want it to do! Following its completion I had to start seriously searching for a place that could paint it. I got real lucky at the first place which could not do the job, BUT they were ( Read more... )

Done! Done, man, done! I am so psyched about this! It's been only about two months, and I already have another completed sculpture to my name! It took a lot of hard work and I had to put many things aside for several weeks, but I completed it on time, and it turned out GREAT ( Read more... )

Ah, yes! 'Tis done, my friends, 'tis done! At long last I have not only managed to complete an all-steel rolling ball sculpture, but I also purchased a video camera, learned how to use it, hassled with the hassles of transcoding, editing and all that great stuff, and here it is, real, moving video of a real, moving piece of art! SCHWEET!

There is a hand-operated starting gate, one spiral, a loop-the-loop, and ( Read more... )

I'm overdue for an update, as messaging with one of my LJ buds has made me aware. This will be short, but have pics(!). I've been out in California for some family stuff, and while I was there I got to meet with a couple of fellow sculptors who do the same stuff I do. It was a blast, and I wish I had time to fully chronicle it here, but maybe I'll ( Read more... )

This isn't much of an update, but I think I'm due. It seems like things drag one interminably with this sculpture, and then suddenly shoot forward. I always think of those shows on TV that have guys building a motorcycle or a car in a week and how it always looks like there's something going on. In reality, there are long periods where it looks ( Read more... )

Here are just a few pics of what I've been working on this past week. Things are happenin' now!

Wow, two posts in one day. I'd think that was significant if it weren't for the fact that the previous one was little more than a link and me being excited but unable to talk more about the subject thus rendering the entire post possibly amusing but a bit shy on the "real information" side of things ( Read more... )

One more rolling ball sculpture, completed! Schweet!
