Horse continued...


I am continuing to work on my wheel thrown horse. It's really difficult to create a form that is fairly advanced with non-advanced throwing skills. If you have any suggestions, please let me know!

Any Ideas?


I have completed several concentration pieces, but need to focus on getting some breadth works in. At the Local 14 show there was a woman named Anthony who threw wheel thrown animal forms. The shapes were very abstract and eye catching. I have never been very experienced on the wheel but this work should be fun because I will be throwing different shapes, to widen my throwing skills.

New Breadth Piece


So I really like Deborah Butterfield's art work. My original concentration was to do animal forms out of different materials, but for some reason it never happened. Because Deborah focuses on horse forms I thought I would give it a try. So far it is an abstract form of a horse skeleton. Hope y'all like it!

Balloon Flower


This is a cool image of a flower made out of balloons... I think. The sculpture's shape is interesting and appealing to the eye. It is interesting how the stem separates and then comes back to a singular one. This method may allow me to make my sculptures stand while keeping the shape twisted

New Idea


This plant is really cool if you are to look at it upside down. The curved stem and leaves that come out are very pleasing to the eye. The rich red color and yellow pods are very interesting and pretty. I hope to make something similar to this plant. Also, the red bouquet like flower in the back is beautiful as well.

Here is a portion of the Ransom family. Unfortunately it is not shown in this photo, but my father is EXTREMELY handsome. I hope all of you who view this photograph appreciate Dilly Pickles and her greatness....

Next Plant


For my next concentration project I was thinking about making an abstract/ unique flower that is covered in moss. I really like the contrast of silver wire and the rich green color of the moss. Here is a picture that shows the potential project.
