How I used to deliver my sculptures
I used to deliver my sculptures with my '78 Datsun. What a powerhouse. If it was summertime I had to run the heater full blast to keep the engine cool. Here, I'm picking up "Dreamer" from Renaissance Bronze foundry in Pueblo Colorado. This is the early '90s.

I've had this work set up in the studio for days now and didn't realize until just now that I may be endangering the entire space/time continuum. I'll be sure to not let them see each other on the 21st.

Back in the saddle with the small bronze Hornytoads
I just got new Silicon Rubber molds completed for the small bronze Hornytoad. My old mold made back in 1998 deteriorated and was unusable. Just poured 13 waxes that are ready to go to the foundry.
