Below is some general information about the artwork you may purchase from this site, shipping information etc.
Books These are not your parents books. These are unique mixed media collages based around an old hardcover book. Text and images have been inserted into the front cover of the book, the pages have been sealed shut, and a picture hanger has been attached to the back so that it may be hung on the wall. These look great in groups of three-but also work well alone. The pictures and the text combine to form a new story-one not found in the original book.

Wire Sculptures
These sculptures are formed of wrapped and bent wire, rods, glass, and other strange and unusual objects. These delicate and constantly changing sculptures are handmade, one of a kind pieces. These sculptures are meant to be interactive and are never fully fixed in place or time. The beginning of the artwork is made by me, but it is the owner who brings it to life. You can bend it to fit your moods or emotions. Even if the owner chooses not to alter the piece, It may change over time on its own. These colorful sculptures can be hung free floating in space to take full advantage of their three dimensional and movable nature, or they may be hung against a wall or window.

Paintings My first painting was made in May 1998, since then I have painted and sold over 700 pieces. This somewhat obsessive painting began with a piece of found wood and some leftover latex paint from painting the house. Me and my roommate RUFAS collaborated on our first painting, and painted at the same table together for the next year. I also now use use acrylic as well as latex. Frequent subject matter includes crazy little stick figure people, buildings, and all kinds of animals and whatever else that strikes my fancy. All paintings are on found wood, roughly sawn into shape, and have a picture hanger attached to the back.

What to expect I only sell signed, original peices. I use found objects so all dimensions are not exact. Everything is done by hand and is often made with found materials, so do not expect precise cuts, clean lines or nice smells. :) Just good art. Also every monitor is different, so some colors may appear slightly lighter or darker that the actual artwork. I have been selling my art for more than five years on ebay with glowing reviews-feel free to check out my Ebay Feedback.
Shipping and Handling The paintings are all on solid wood, or are hardcover books, records, or made of metal, so the final shipping weight of the artwork is often quite substantial. Shipping and handling is $7.00. I ship Priority Mail. If you buy more than one painting, or artwork it is only an additional $3.00 S/H for each additional piece. (Thus S/H for two pieces is $10.00, S/H for three pieces is $13.00 etc.) Any freestanding metal sculptures may be shipped flat, requiring the owner to bend the stand back into place. This is extremely easy, and is the first step in making this artwork your own. I only ship within the United States. I ship within 48 hours of receiving payment. I accept checks, money orders, or Paypal. Checks and money orders may be sent to the address on the contact page.
