A NOTE FROM THE ARTIST ABOUT MATERIALS AND TECHNIQUE: "I just see what could be, start designing in my mind,find the parts that fit and let it flow. I use tools, kitchen items, car parts, and scrap metal. I don't clean parts before creation; all materials are used in their found state. Once I build the frame I puzzle out what parts fit into the shape. Sometimes I have to cut parts with my plasma cutter and occasionally I will use a torch to soften and bend a stubborn piece, then I use a wire fed mig welder to weld all the pieces into place. "
