Celebrating four years of sculpting this month! In result of that I'm doing a free raffle in which the winner may choose any sculpture item from my store that they like, which includes my entire line of steampunk animal sculptures.

Posting a notice here that I'm switching over to Google Blogger. In a day or so I'll make all past entries private, and all blog links will be updated.

I've really loved being here on livejournal with you guys for the past couple years...but I have to admit I was awed and lured by the user friendly template designer, customizable page setup, uploadable backgrounds, and koifish app, not to mention free with no ads.

link to my currently empty but soon to be regular journal. Hope to see you guys there!

Functional artwork meets ammonites! These guys are going to be fun to paint, I just know it....

Every year around mid-September here in Berea there's a Balloon Glow. It's part of the Spoonbread Festival, and the most awesome part (I dont like spoonbread much-it's too much like squishy cornbread). Unfortunately I've missed it the last couple years, due to sickness, or some other reason. The weather was perfect, so we took the kids to the nearby park first, and brought Abby along too. They had live music, and various people selling hot dogs, drinks, and spoonbread samples out of the backs of vans or trucks for extortion rates. Abby behaved well for the most part, though she did give us some trouble pulling on the lead when we passed a cart labeled "pork chop express", and a few of the hot dog vendors gave her temptation trouble.

Ah, btw...I should be posting pics of a new sculpt tomorrow, it's in the oven currently, baking.
