I'm on restricted movement for the next 6 weeks. For almost 16 years I've lived with unrelenting pain from my spinal cord injury. I recently had surgery to implant a Spinal cord simulator for pain. AS SOON AS IT WAS TURNED ON THE PIAN WAS GONE! Today is the first day back in the shop and painting qualifies as light duty. Check out this funky tuna I painted on some reclaimed fence planks. This piece is 24" tall by 16 1/2".

My latest spotted Ray. Carved from a slab of butcher block. The eyes are the agitators inside the rustoleum clear coat spray paint cans. The shoes are a combination of burned (black parts) with acrylic paint. The tail was pulled from a washing machine. It was one of 4 stabilizer rods. Whatcha think?

Here's a clip of how I do the detail engraving on my pieces. My brain still thinks I'm right handed so holding the engraving pen in my left hand ends badly. I figured out that I have to put it in my right and guide it with my left. Life is weird when you cannot feel your hands. Just maintaining grip takes constant focus. Every detail is a focused thought. Lose focus for a split second and I could ruin it.

You lookin at me? This chubby manatee was cut out of an old air conditioning system cabinet mounted on reclaimed fence planks. LED's installed behind the metal give her a different personality in the dark. Roughly 46"x 22". Whatcha think?
