Multi-media shadow boxes.

Here are a few of my shadowboxes. I like to put found objects together into a fun story. Little scenes. This one is called "Wants Loving Man."

"No Thing is Any Thing"

"Snake Shaman"

I've been making art since childhood. Then it was just for fun and to keep my mind off of other things. Now, I guess it's the same. Art makes me a better person. It takes me into my core and keeps me there for long periods of time. When I'm finished working for the day, I feel more complete, more grounded, more available for the rest of my life. If you've always wanted to paint or write, but don't know where to start, I will encourage you. Stop by my studio and take a look. 1000 Harris, #6, in Historic Fairhaven.
