Hi Jim: I can recognize your work from miles. Nice and unique ! Have you ever atempted to make a steam angine using your nails style? I know it must be a challenge, but might me worth it... Nelson

Steam Engine??

never crossed my mind...

Most of the works from the RR spikes are humanity.. an interesting aspect to me is that I cannot give them personality or individuality ( no faces or features ) but I can give them humanity thru poses and posture.

Discovery is about the people finding and getting to know the surprizing objects which have appeared ( from the sky maybe, as suggested by the one sphere which is half buried ). The vision is to show them without fear, with wonderment.

this is an early work, to me it has some spiritual content.

Thanks!

Jim

Hi Jim: very interesting

Hi Jim: very interesting your explanation. Never thought ab Discovery had to do with finding objects from outter space... The work becomes more interesting as one, the viewer, finds out what really inspired the artist. Your message and philosophy truly shows in your rail road work. I have a sculpture made with rail nails "BAbel", that I`ll post on the weekend, when you see it let me know what you think. Your point of view as a nails sculptor, got to be interesting too, see ya.
