Funny how things work...

I was reading Esquire mag. Saw a article about James Victore (www.jamesvictore.com). Checked out his web site. Saw a piece he did on Rainer Maria Rilke, Letters to a Young Poet. Researched the book and bought it (iBook version). Funny how things work. God Bless the interweb!

Kitchen Hood


Early work on a kitchen hood for my sister-in-law. It measures 60" long, by 34" tall. Beefy. Still needs the strapping and bolts to complete the industrial look.

While I was at my favorite coffee shop this AM...

I felt like I was being fucked. Not the good fucked, but the bad fucked. So I left without ordering. Then I thought of a totally cool quote: "Think you do something great? Bet it could be better".

New light. Early stages


New pendant light. A take on my Straight Light, BUT we shot this one up with a 12 gauge shotgun ( a Benelli Nova for you gun buffs). Can't wait till it's finished! These will hang in a high condo building in downtown Chicago.

What a shame...

No one takes initiative any more. Us "problem solvers" are a dying breed. The world is being over run with pussies.
