One
of my carvings was recently auctioned off by Christie's
along with several smaller pieces by Clark Voorhess,
my mentor and inspiration for my career as a whale artist.
Pleases me to see our work being sold together. The value
of my work just went up!

BUDDHA ON A WHALE!!!!
Heavy on the mayo. My version
of the "WHALE RIDER".
I was inspired after seeing the movie, WHALE
RIDER to sculpt a young woman on the
back of a whale. Several months later a old
friend commissioned me to sculpt a Buddha.
It soon ended up on a whale and turned into
a Tara. A female Buddha. Funny how things
happen. The photo is a conceptual rough clay
model. The finished piece will be in wood.
Stay tuned.
Here
she is!
The piece is 27"W
x22"L x16"H

Pointing
Hand - Volume II
A
new hand points the way to my
gallery. It is cast from my original
carving in wood, in FRG (Fiberglass
Reinforced Gypsum). It makes
for very creative signage.
I'll point the way to my Plaques
Page...

The
Hand That Got Away! A Great Carving - STOLEN!
My
gallery in Weston is a little off the beaten path.
A neighbor suggested that I carve a hand pointing the
way down Mill Lane. Great idea and after almost a month
of carving and painting my wooden human appendage,
hung proudly underneath my sign for the Whales In Vermont
Gallery. Sorry to say the life span of this great carving
was short lived. It was stolen Sept
27, 2003 and hasn't been seen since. It probably
hangs in some college dormitory or fraternity this
very moment.
|
STOLEN!! |
The
experience made me very angry. It's very hard to make
a living as a artist. Having your art work stolen by
folk who haven't the foggiest clue as to what working
hard for a living is all about can make one angry.
In
any event. That's the way it is.
I
have a $500 reward for the return of the piece or
information leading to the return of the hand. If
you have any information concerning this carving,
please call the me at 802 824 3604, or the Vermont
State Police, 802 875 2112
