Happy Valentines Day!!

These are new works I made for the Valentines party sale last weekend. I really had fun playing in the shop. These days it’s a rarity for me and very wellcome. The Valentines Party was great fun (sorry I didn’t take a single picture) and I sold several pieces!

Here we’re putting the final touches on our new Sputnik Fire Gardens. These Outdoor fire pits are great for cold spring and summer nights. We fill them with sand and the propane gas burns at the surface creating a magical blue flame that dances on the sand. You can draw in the sand and the fire follows the lines you make! These are both enjoyable and warm.

Past work:

Desert flower

A’s Fire Garden

Please contact us if you are unable to attend and want to find out more about my fire sculptures and pricing.

 

Desert Flower

I wanted to do A more organic fire sculpture for the upcoming show at the Crucible. I was inspired by desert blooms that come after a good rain this time of year. I’ve been working on a new venturis burner system that will now make it possible for me to make more artful replacements of the patio heater. I’m very happy with it and look forward to warming my hands and watching my wife dance on the new Boiler Bar Stage.

Up close: no smoke or flames outside the tubes, great fuel air mix and it’s getting very Hot!

I came across a video of my fire garden “An invitation to fire ants” while digesting my turkey dinner.
I’ve been working on vessels for sand fire over the past 3 years. I came up with the idea when I was a kid playing with a fire pit at the Idaho ski lodge where I grew up.
