It feels good to have a commission that I can talk about. I have so many secret ones going on right now. It is a Christmas thing. My newest Commission is of Willard R Sparks, for the University of Memphis. Here is a link to information about Mr Sparks. Another one of those quick turn around commissions, but I look forward to getting to know the man, and I’ll be blogging about the process for all of those UM alumni, students and faculty that care to watch.

This video documents the process of bringing digital art into the traditional sculpture studio. I is of 3 different sculptures and as promised it is an update on how the Jenna sculpture was taken from poser to clay.

I have been working on a technology symposium for Houston next year. HUGE PROJECT! more about that later. I found RabbitHole printing at Siggraph this year and just loved it. I’m hoping they will be at the symposium. This stuff reminds me of looking through my view master toy in the 60′s,
but it is much more intense and active. Is it a shadow box? Is it a print? Is it sculpture? To help with the load time of my blog I’ll direct you to the link for this video http://vimeo.com/1767780?pg=embed&sec=1767780
