| I picked up this piece of concrete, along with more than a ton of other concrete pieces, in the dump behind a local Wal-Mart that was undergoing renovation. Wally Trash is about 7"x7" and has been over coated with gloss polyurethane. One side has been painted with copper paint and patinaed. The face showing the aggregate has been sanded...it looks almost like terrazzo. The base is made from scrap steel. |  |

This work-n-progress is 26"x7" and is made from salvaged sheet steel that began life as a truck door. The "Chloe" needs some work and the perfume flask is about half finished.. I can't decide what to call this piece... maybe, Scents We Met, or Scents You've Gone.... I dunno... The background finish is a metallic-like suede paint I got from Home Depot.... |
| Starry Night(the Lesser) is 30"x8". The piece is made from a piece of galvanized duct that has copper, brass and pennies melted on the surface. The lower band is a piece of metal strapping. |

It shouldn't be difficult to identify this charicature. Gerald R. Ford is my ninth Ken Fallin rendering and is 11"x18". Hanger wire was used for the outline and pieces of microwave oven were cut for his eyes, nose and tie. |
