Christmas Ornament

This is my Christmas ornament this year, inspired by our recent trip to Ireland.

This is chasing and repoussé work on copper, kind of like using a hammer and chisel.  As you can probably see, this is slightly 3D, a kind of low relief.

Steel and Glass Shelving




I built this shelving unit to display my art.  This will enable me to take some pieces out of storage and display them.

Updated Website

I updated my website to make it more mobile friendly.   I used “responsive design” to design pages that would display pretty well on an iphone or an ipad or a big computer screen.  Sometimes websites have totally different pages for mobile use, but that is a lot of extra work, when a simple format can work for any screen, big or small.  I ended up hand coding in html, a lot of work, but it keeps the code simple and short.

Please take a look and give me your comments.  I am especially interested in anything that does not work well, or looks strange, on your device.  Thanks.
