Energy Moving: Cut Outs!

These are sculptural pieces made of cut wood and cut masonite. Wood-working was always a passion of mine, and these pieces combine that craft with my painting and fine art work. These are all incredibly time and labor intensive.

"Monkey See, Monkey Do" 3x3 feet This is an interactive piece of art. You can remove and rearrange the dots. Under each dot is one of the animals you see below. The production of this piece cost over $700, and this is by far and away the most difficult project I have ever undertaken. The circles were die cut with a laser guided router, and the dots are held in place with rare earth magnets. I almost quit about 100 times, ask my girlfriend.
