At long last I'm actually ready to pour the resin. Everything is levelled out so the resin will flow evenly. Got a way to clamp the form closed and another way to seal up the seams so resin doesn't drain out the cracks plus another ...

Glueing the side braces now.
In talking it over with my studio mate I've got a plan for rolling out the clear film that'll hopefully reduce the chance of trapping air bubbles beneath it.
Still inventing the method in my head.

I've reassembled the plexi resin form and am continuing to add the plywood side supports  - order more resin and let the pouring begin. Hopefully with no bubbles or any other weird anomolies. I think this time around the form is less delicate - mostly ...

Got both sides of the mould glued together as you see below and tidied up the corner joints but as I was setting up to glue the first outer brace the mould tipped over and broke apart. Grrr.
Rebuild! Clearly it's delicate so going to put it ...

I've begun to build the resin pouring mould - so far it's working. Loving the plastic cup spacers held together and taped to my work light to keep them positioned. This whole thing is using my typical hacked together builder will approach. With any luck it'll ...

When I look back on it, I've often delighted in water. I wrote about damming rain and melt water as a kid but there's more. There's an element of fear and caution mixed with the playful. It took me a long while to fully recognize the true ...

Last night I went to hear an artist friend give a talk. Later, I had a dream where I was speaking with him at his studio. As I wandered around I picked up an unfinished piece and I'm embarrassed to say I damaged it, ...

As a kid we lived on a street that sloped downhill. I remember spending time playing in the river of rainwater rushing down the gutter of our street. The flow mesmerized me.
I'd spend ages finding ways to dam it up - leaves, twigs, sand, whatever had ...

We take this entirely for granted but if you think about it, the simple fact that we stand and move about erect perpendicular to the ground and gravity is mind boggling.
Forget that you're standing on the surface of the earth for a moment and imagine you're instead ...

When I was young - four, perhaps younger, I used to have this absolutely horrifying dream when I was feverish.
The dream would start out innocuously enough, I would just be - without shape or essence, like a mind in a white space devoid of form or surface. ...

I've spent a lot of time contemplating how things are going to unfold in the near future - both in general and personally. First of all, because I'm self-employed it means I'm on my own for future finances but also I'm having a hard time imagining ...

When people ask what I photograph, I usually launch into a long involved explanation - how what I'm doing evolved from who I am. But... judging from the glazed looks on peoples faces, that's not working. So here goes another somewhat shorter attempt.
When I moved to ...
