CCC Outdoor Sculpture Show

Rick True who runs the scultpure program at Clackamas Community College is organizing his last outdoor show before he retires the next year. Having participated in previous years I was thrilled to be invited back again for this show.  

The sculpture I made for this occasion I've entitled 'Anima Eterna'. It is available for purchase for $4600 and would be a dramatic accent piece to a modern home interior or exterior.

The campus will be filled with sculpture from April 10th to June 15th.  You don't need a ticket just drive on out and take a picnic lunch. I promise it's worth it.

Espiral new sculptures

'Jump' at Milwaukie City Hall

With a hop, skip and a 'JUMP' one of my favorite sculptures is now on exhibit in front of the City Hall in Milwaukie, Oregon. It will be on display for the coming year with a grand opening this Friday, October 7th at 6pm. Join me as the City of Milwaukie welcomes new sculptures to their sculpture garden. 

Familia Naranjo Returns to Sellwood

'Familia Naranjo' has been on the move for the last two years. From the Maryhill Art Museum in Washington, to Dexter, Oregon and then for the last five mounths at the Big Rock Sculpture Garden in Bellingham, Washington. Wow this family has been on a serious vacation. Now it's back home waiting for a future exhibition site or a permanent home.

Installing Bike corrals in Eugene

My friend, Lee Imonen, has been busy this year. As a class proyect he had his students design and fabricate bike racks for the city of Eugene. The first term the students researched and designed the forms which were then presented to the city and three designs were chosen. In the next term the class fabricated them as a group project. I've been watching these imaginative bike securing stations unfold over the last year and was able to lend a hand when they installed two of them.

Thursday morning the mayor  of Eugene Kitty Piercy had a dedication for the corrals and gave Lee the golden wrench of the city. I thought it was pretty cool that the project even made it to the papers and TV. Seemed like a win-win situation for everyone involved.
