The Saw Project
In a big world how does one individual wanting to make a humble gesture hope to make a difference?  Just do it.  Deeds moved by a good heart and a good wind
will always find their way.
In my attempts to say thank you and recognize on a personal level some outstanding individuals, who in one way or another have made a positive difference in
my life, I  started sending out these hand painted antique hand saws.   It's my way of paying recognition to those I feel are a "Cut Above the Rest".

whimsy......peace friends

Found in the
dictionary
somewhere among
the words... father,
son, husband, and
friend,
somewhere between
caring, creative,
sportsman, and
wonderful,
sits a picture of my
cousin Matt...the
truest definition of all
these words and so
many more.

i am a key into a doorway on a wall
of my own creating............
nothing better than surrounding
myself with a little color.

murals
butterflies and flowers
climbing up the wall,
they'd have climbed much higher
if i was more than ten feet tall.
though i did not
paint the dog, i
did paint the
piano sitting in
front of the
wall.......can
you see it?
this huge tree sprung up out of me onto several kitchen walls.....
if i had kept going the limbs would have grown round corners and down the halls.
combining dinosaurs and baseball proved an easy task....
though when this job was finished i needed a nip from my old flask.
here's a little bit from a gigantic ceiling mural,
i wish i had more space in which to let this painting
unfurl.
