Wow! Two years since my last post?! I’ve been up to a lot since then and would love to share with you some of my newer works! A couple of weeks ago was What the Festival in Dufur, OR where my 10′ disco ball and Immersive Jelly have been joined by two dragons; one 80′ dragon stage, and a smaller fire breathing dragon. What a fun time!

My daughter Anna and I put up this fun installation at What The Festival, an EDM music fest near Dufur, Oregon. We hung the 18″ diameter “donut” 12′ off the ground and added over 21,000′ of nylon ribbon that touched many senses, the sound of it rustling in the wind, the soft, silky touch, ever changing visual form both day and night. I’m already planning a similar, though larger piece for next years festival.

This 60″ sphere from stainless steel flatbar was the first one I’ve done with a glass bead blast finish, giving it a shimmering quality.
