Next Please

Well, besides scheduling upcoming shows for the holidays, October has been a semi-productive month. I have a few railing jobs secured and getting all of the necessary material handling out of the way. The first will be a new railing and gate for Rudy's Pizza. With the cost of steel going up I am trying to use more and more recycled steel. Its always intersting showing up at the scrapyard and figuring out what I can use where. The Rudy's railing will prove interesting. With a limited budget, I will try to create something cool. It is not too often that I get projects with complete artistic freedom. It proves daunting sometimes but I am at my best when I can "fake" it. It also saves me alot of time and money. The design phase of most of these projects usually take as much time as me making the piece. And its usually unpaid time....which is no fun either.

To Blog or not to Blog...

Ahhh to blog or not to blog that is the question. I never thought I would have much time for this but I thought it would be interesting to add posts, pics, and progress reports of my business of making art and a little family life too. I've been hearing for long time now that a blog can increase traffic flow to your website and blah, blah, blah. I'm going to use it as a way to document my progress....project to project, maybe let out a little steam sometimes and see what fun it can bring.
