    I have a history of using old found drawers as containers for art. Sometimes I have been lucky enough to find handsome well made drawers, and it is great to get a matched pair of drawers! Old drawers tend to be best: all wood, or at least sturdy plywood rather than junky pressed boards. And…

    These, and all my original art images, can be printed as art quality prints. I can print these, and many other images, with archival inks on appropriate high quality papers.

    Here is my first Fat Baby Bird cast in cement. This is the first cement “pour” in my new mold, and this mold is fine! Unfortunately my casting was flawed; I did not mix enough cement, and with the RapidSet material mixed fairly thick for strength, the layers show. So this first cast is far…
