more of the same idea execution variation- I really loved and still do the painting of Vincent VanGogh this was a far removed play on how he painted... I was thinking about what he was doing although I have never tried to imitate it.

Bench Sculpture
Found Objects

I stumbled across some benches that had been overturned and abused so I turned them into art! I was somewhat flattered that the next day the college sculpture proffesor took his class out to see them......Art - Vandalism a bit of both all for a good cause the cultural diversity of mankind.
