Hey dudes. Been a little while. I've been sooo busy. I apologize once again for the delays with the Dave Hackett sculptures. No one is more frustrated with that than I am. Basically I had to re-design the mounting point on the sculpture because the one I sent to Dave was destroyed by the shipping carrier. And it cost me 50$ to ship it. Major bummer. I think I have the situation sorted out now however and I will be shipping Dave his SECOND copy next week. Ugh. In the meantime, thanks to DeafDan, I got in touch with Mike Brooke at Concrete Wave and I was commissioned to do a sculpture for the 2011 buyers guide. Mike was really nice to work with and he gave me a big opportunity. I'm happy I was able to fulfill his expectations. Of course Mike was the art director on this project so there were a few things I probably wouldn't have done with the piece. (mainly the helmet and the longboard in transition) Alas that is the draw back of working with a client. You have to make them happy. I'm not 'looking a gift horse in the mouth' though. I had fun doing this thing and it came out better than I thought it would.
PS - Anyone gonna go to that 1 in 91 art benefit in Venice Ca? My Gonz sculpture is gonna be auctioned off.

Yeah I have seen the face of that sculpt on the concrete wave app.
I knew it was you just waiting to see a full shot of the figure!
Looks good.
I hope to buy one of these sculpts from you one day! |

I actually like the helmet (reminds me of my fullear Protec I wear). Awesome work, but yeah, would have been better with an old pig instead of the longboard. Glad you got paid  |

| When Michael posted a teaser shot of this piece on Facebok....I knew right away that it was your work. Another epic piece. I'm hoping for one of your Hacketts also... |

It would be cool is there were a defect or two on the sculpture,just to prove that you are in fact human....
Simply amazing. |

| I saw this in the buyers guide. So crip. Great work. Whats rad is you know who did it the second you see it. I just sent out some original inkings to the 1-91 auction. Mark from Indy included a few items as well, some nice stuff I think. I'm not in so cal so I won't be at the event but curious to see how much they raise. Hope they like what I sent. Rad that your involved. Good on you! |
