Aside from a single piece of art that I made in a college class, this is the earliest piece of sculpture that I made using an assortment of found materials and hand crafted parts.I carved the figure, body and animal head from bass wood. Hemp was used for the fur, copper legs and motorcycle springs, a motorcycle fuel line, keys, rivets, nails, and an anchor cut from metal... all attached to the stone base.
I put off selling him as he was to be traded for a piece of custom made furniture. The deal never materialized, so he remains sitting in my studio like a totem to my sculptural beginnings.
