June "Talk About" with the Handmade Division Team!

Heyoooooooo! It's the monthly "talk about" blog that I share with the Handmade Division team!!!
This month's topic is...
“Do you consider yourself only a Single Discipline artist, or do you work in multi media application, and/or draw techniques from other fields to use in the creations you’re working in?”

Well to start, I LOVE creating art, and that means pretty much ANY art. Plus I have a really really short attention span, so there you go! I am in love with metals right now, but my favorite art form would have to be sculpture. I guess jewelry design is really just small sculptures that you wear on your body yes? 
My ultimate goal is to have several forms going at once. Now that I am pretty much creating on a full time schedule, I am going to start branching out soon.
I'm thinking some photography first, then I will ease my way back into a big long term sculpture project that I have had planned out for quite some time.
I also really really want to get into ceramics! And tattoos! And Glass!
Yep...

Please check out some other artists who are sharing their answers to this very same question!!!

Talk About... My favorite thing

Hello all!

I am joining up with some people from the Snow Leopard Network to talk about a favorite thing that I have created.



Mine would have to be my bike. I tend not to, and try not to get attached to material things, but this bike is a tuff one! It was created by a few friends and myself at a place and time that will stay with me forever. The memories are good, and I hope to have many more!



It's built from an 89' 883 Harley evo motor and a paughco frame. The fuel tank has been chopped in half on the right side to incorporate the oil tank as well. Pretty much all of the metal was fabricated from old misc parts including the exhaust. Everything on this bike was modified/fabricated in some way by us. Its a one of a kind for sure!



Please check out some other blogs with their favorite creations!
