So these are 2 of my latest works, or I guess 4 but I consider the three stainless steel candle sticks to be a set. Interestingly the middle one is actually the barrel from a 10 gauge shot gun. I originally had a sort of brushed finish on them but found it lacking in pizzaz so I polished them to a shine. They were a private commission so are unavailable for sale.

The second sculpture was built for a group show titled 'Fears and Dreams' and is titled 'Building the Dream', at the local Revelstoke Visual Arts Society. It is currently on display at Art First in Revelstoke and is for sale for $750 cdn. + applicable taxes. The concept behind the work changed as it was assembled and I feel it represents how when we pursue our dreams the pieces seam to just fall into place at times almost as if there is an outside influence helping us to achieve them, ie inspiration from above? The pieces are actually slices of railway track that have been polished and then welded together. The sculpture is intended for indoor display.
