A familiar facsimile calls for help while hanging by a thread during a crises in the living room.
Wood, acrylic paint, wire, laser cut MDF | 12 x 10.75 x 3.5 inches (30.5 x 27 x 9 cm) | October 2020

The colorful background is made from craft sticks I used as paint stir sticks that I saved. I now have quite a collection of them that I incorporate into assemblage pieces now and then.

Recycled floating apparitions of doubt.
Wood, acrylic paint, laminated paper, string | 11.75 x 11.5 x 3.5 inches (30 x 29 x 9 cm) | June 2018

You can't really see it but there is a stack of purple pancakes with a butter pat on top resting on the yellow chair.

Acrylic paint on wood panel, string, cloth, recycled soda pop can, wire, paper | 22.25 x 22.25 x 3 inches (56.5 x 56.5 x 7.6 cm) | October 2016

I got the idea for this one and the other two in the series from a light rail station.

Old Constellation With New Idea I
Recycled wood, discarded bottle caps, nails, wire, chain, acrylic paint, paper | 23.5 x 16.5 inches (59.7 x 41.9 cm)

This is the first Old Constellation piece I did. The wood is a piece of old plywood that was used to ship artwork in. I found it at work by the trash bins.

Wood, acrylic paint, paper, wire, metal, tiny handwoven cloth, graphite | 13.5 x 5.75 x 2.5 inches (34.3 x 14.6 x 8.9 cm) | May 1991

This is a very early piece I did back when I was really having fun doing this kind of assemblage work.

It's been a lifelong dream since yesterday to pass by a sticky sort of beach scene on my way to spend a half hour with Charles A.
Wood, acrylic paint, wire, twigs | 10 x 8.5 x 2.5 inches, (25.5 x 21.6 x 6.3 cm) | September 2022

I got the idea for this one from looking at Charles Arnoldi's early stick work.

It all came out in the end when the committee attempted to sit for one of their short bucket list sessions.
Wood, acrylic paint, paper, recycled copper wire, string | 15 x 19 x 3.5 inches (38 x 48.2 x 8.9 cm) | November 2022

I created the buckets with layers of heavy paper glued and wrapped around a piece of PVC pipe as a mold. I then added circles the diameter and same thickness to the bottom of each bucket. I poked a hole in the bottom of each bucket and after hanging them from a string I filled each one with paint and let the paint drip out onto the pencils, chairs, and floor of the frame.
