      Hello Karla. Life got in the way of my art for a while. I’m back to working on my art again. Hopefully I’ll have something to show soon.

    Btw how fo you ship you art? I put one of my dragons that i made with your book on a museum for a tome, and when they returned it to me the teeth and horns where broken 🙁

      Shipping sculpture is not easy. I build custom containers made specifically for the piece of art I am shipping. It is very time consuming. But I don’t want things breaking en route. I often say (mostly in jest but with some truth) that it takes more work to build the shipping crate that to make the art project.

      If you lent a piece of art to a museum then it was their responsibility to get it back to you unbroken. They should have hired a professional to make the shipping container. It is not acceptable for them to damage your work!
