Another fun project accomplished with Erin Munter. Designed, built and installed handrail in Seabeck. Handrail built from 100 percent repurposed material. Rebar from the Elwha bridge, large metal soil spikes, old rebar from the Bremerton wharf and numerous miscellaneous tool parts

Another finished project with Michael Kerkes of Crazy Hill Nursery in Belfair. A 780 pound rock we picked up at a local quarry, some old springs off a large rock compactor, some welding to create the base, and good friend and artist James Kelsey who set the stone with his boom truck

A collaboration between me and two great friend who own an amazing nursery in Belfair WA. We actually won two awards at one of the biggest shows in the world.

Feeling good. Just found out one of my art pieces got in a national magazine. Crazy Hill Nursery in Belfair WA had me reconfigure a piece I created for one of their clients and it ended up in an amazing garden

Starting all over again on social media. Facebook deleted my business and my personal account after 17 years with no warning and no reason. I lost all history and contacts. I heard Blue Sky is a good platform. Thought I would give it a shot.
