What a cool guy! So easy to listen to and so not full of BS art buzzwords. Thanks for doing such a long, well-rounded profile; I hate it when we only get to see a few seconds of work and a few seconds of person. Those mechanical sculptures are excellent and I just may be inspired to try one myself.
fourier series!
Fantastic!!! So much movement in them. Such a creative person creating amazing objects just by looking at God’s creation!! Well done!!
