Dragons With Personality

With this series of dragons, I tried to impart an individual personality with each one. Body language and  hand gestures were used to achieve the caricaturization of these beasts, while still maintaining a graceful dragon flow. I keep them together and hope they can stay that way no matter who their caretaker is.

Three Hook Dragon

 This sculpture is designed to hang up your Bat Cape and  such. Much of this sculpture is created using re-purposed material.  

I received a request from Bonifas a Arts Center for a sculpture donation that will be for an auction May 4. The theme for the auction is Motown Motion. I am from Detroit and damn proud of it, so I made this sculpture. The base is a brake rotor and the five dancing singers are  made using 1/4" wire. Its not quite complete but the basic sculpture is there.This is the third piece in my Motown Sculpture Series.
yeh, I hoid it true da grape vine.......

This is my first attempt at a steam punk(ish sculpture. The base is a Beech root and the vine and leaves are mild steel. The vine is made using re-purposed metal pulled from a swamp, the leaves are sheet metal that was used to make automobile body repairs. The gauge is a speedometer from a Model A Ford. This is the second from my Motown Sculpture Series.

Wine Rack Sculpture

This wine rack is designed to compliment a wood rack for the same patron. It holds standard 450ml. bottles and various other wine bottle shapes. There is around a 10 degree slant toward the cork. Incorporated in the sculpture is a grape vine with the roots at the bottom and climbing up the back of the rack to the top where branches with tendrils and leaves move horizontaly.
