I can sketch, paint and sculpt. And build most anything. 2 of my brothers and myself have been blessed with this talent. It may be because we never stopped trying.

A beer tap handle I made for my boss. Got to do this at work, lucky me. First I had to make it out of clay. Then make a mold to cast many of them out of plastic for a new beer manufacture. Sand and then paint.

This feather I carved from wood and painted as an anniversary gift to my wife.

The room where you enter the house on the driveway side is dedicated to wolf and native artwork. It's not a hobby. It's a way of life.

Here is the horse barn I built. It's 32x48 foot. 10 foot walls. 4 stalls with water and electric. It's build on a 5 foot slope so I had to build up and level off the ground.

A snow sculpture of a gorilla riding an alligator. Did this one about 30 years ago. This is the only pic I have of it on my phone.

That sculpture was huge. The top of the head was at well over 6 foot. We were getting snow from all the neighbors. The apes mouth was open and all teeth were there. Took me several days.

I sculpt my body as well. Because I think the human body is art. I've changed mine to what I think is art. I apologize if this is to much for some people.

Got interested in bodybuilding when I was a young teen. Got tired of being picked on and made fun of. My brothers and I were quiet children in school. We had long hair before it was cool. We were different than the other kids. We got our butts kicked a lot. This pic is me at just before turning 15. Started to change my body. And check out that hair lol.

I'm not trying to brag or show off. Hopefully it inspires someone. You can do anything you want to do. When you fall get back up and try again. I've found giving it all you've got will show up in the long run. Nothing great is done fast. Wado.

I tried working with clay before, you must have a natural talent! It was very hard for me! My talent is cross stitching & writing but haven't done either in awhile.

Yes I've painted the bike as well. In fact I have it tore down at this moment getting pieces ready to repaint. The new color is a neon vermilion. Thank you for the kind remarks Standsalone.

I listen to the spirits giving me direction. And then I don't stop till its done. Never give up! Sometimes it hurts sure. But don't let it kick your butt.

Nice, very bright!! I've only been on a motorcycle twice in my life and the driver didn't go very fast! I see lots of bikes around here... we have many mountain roads to ride on!
