Pelican got your mail?

What do you think of these? Pelicans still seem to be a pretty hot trend along the coastal regions.

Just in time for Houston's rodeo season!

I'm excited to see my Western and American Indian, cowboy and rodeo artwork featured at White Horse Trading Company in Porter, Texas.

It's almost rodeo time here in Houston and these are in the spirit of the season!

Just carved this horse with my CNC

The CNC router is an amazing machine! I work on the image using my computer and it does the carving. I haven't decided what color finish I'll use on this yet.

A lot of my completed artwork is now available in a Western store in Porter, TX called White Horse Western Trading Company.

Horse art? Of course! It's Texas!

I've been commissioned to do Western signs for a local retailer in Porter, Texas. They've turned out great. Using mesquite gives the signs a nice rustic look. I've featured art such as long-horn steer, horses, cowboys, etc. and they've been very popular around here.

Finished the cherry tables!

A customer wanted custom-shaped cherry tables for her living room. Here's how they turned out.

What's your sign?

If you could make a sign that said something unique about you, what would it be? One of my granddaughters wanted hearts and flowers on the sign I made for her bedroom. That's far different from the sign I made for one customer who is a die-hard John Deere fan and wanted a green & yellow tractor on the sign posted in his garage. (I went to a John Deere retail store and bought authentic paint for that job.)

That's the fun of making custom signs. No two are exactly alike!

Delivering pelicans

I'm delivering hand-painted pelicans, sitting on pilings, to a gallery in Kemah, TX today. Pelican artwork is so popular nowadays, and I'm thrilled with how these turned out. They are made from durable and lightweight high density urethane. They can withstand the weather better than wood.

I'm told people love the idea that these are made in the U.S.A. !
