From concept to completion, I document the process of creating a fine piece of art. The outdoor fine art fair/shows account for 75% of all sales in the U.S., and are the most organic means of acquiring art: direct from the maker, dreamer, worker.

Genuine Lignum Vitae grows in northern South America and southern Central America. The name means "Tree of Life", because its oils, which account for 1/3 of the weight, offer numerous medicinal properties. The wood was heavily used in the shipbuilding and hydroelectric power plant industries in the late 1800's through mid 1900's for the water submerged rotating assemblies of propeller and rudder shaft bearings, and is now one of the most endangered trees on earth. So how did I get it? Trees die. That's how. Lignum Vitae trees live a loooong time. So, wait in line :)
I use Kutzall rotary burrs/files in my die grinder. These are the best! If you'd like to try them, use my coupon code for a 10% discount.
