the artist

Why invent? I am one. Now I can afford it. With a unlimited budget I would experiment with three ways to do sculpture:
  1. Fabrication using plasma sprayed metals
  2. Computer controlled milling machines, especially for stone
  3. Foam carving with lasers

the art

Geodesic. Structurally perceptive. What the T'linkit Indian would do if instead of stone age tools, he had a modern machine shop. My stuff is on display at the Estes Art Center, in Estes Park, Colorado.

the beret

You lost me here. But I sometimes wear a hard hat if I am working on something big, or a head sock if I am sand blasting, or a straw hat if I am working out in the sun.
