So much for the belief that sculptors will pump out thousands of the same piece creating soulless cookie-cutter multiples. Ironically, that charge was blown apart when my 46″ tall 3D-printed and hand-painted sculpture...

Read MoreNow that I’ve stumbled into this amazing new look with 3D printing I’m playing with the nuances. Some I can control – the color and type of filament (type only if I’m printing on my Cerberus 3D 400 – it can handle a lot of different types because of its ability to print at a […]
Read MoreSince I moved my 3D Systems CubeX 3D printer down to the studio, I’ve been able to play with it while I’m in the office cooling down – Arizona summers are really brutal when you work with fire and wear heavy protective gear. The CubeX gives me another way to play that keeps me under […]
Read MoreI’ve written before about how I never create exact multiples of designs, 3D printed or otherwise. It’s possible, it’s just my philosophy to always create unique artworks. That being said, I do enjoy creating variations of sculptures – something I also do with my metal works – which is how series develop. (If you go […]
Read MoreI originally began working in wood (OK, in cars, if you want to go back further). I didn’t do anything professionally with it, but I built some furniture. Then I turned to metal, which has been the bulk of my practice since I began selling my artwork in the early 2000s. About 4 or so […]
Read MoreOK, maybe I went a little overboard in the headline, but I’m still really jazzed at the reception of my 3D-printed sculpture at the recent Sculpture Tucson show in, yes, Tucson, Arizona (is there another Tucson? Hmmm, I’ll have to look that up ….) The turnout at the show was incredible. Preliminary estimates say that […]
Read MoreEven though I have an 8-foot-tall 3D printer that will print up to 4 feet tall, there are times I’d like to make something bigger. I have done that, as evidenced in the 5-1/2 foot tall sculpture Epic Swoon (below), which was commissioned by PriceCooperswaterhouse in Columbus, Ohio. That sculpture, the tallest 3D-printed piece I’ve […]
Read MoreCrazy things happen with 3D printing, especially with my 8-foot-tall Cerberus 3D Gigante 3D printer. As Steve Graber, who built this monster, has said, whatever this printer does, it does spectacularly. That definitely includes surprises like the “slubs” on my sculpture Love and Marriage, which are explainable, and recent moments like the time the print […]
