The community at Rockaway came to check out my finished collection of petroglyphs including JFK Jets taking off, a basketball, Horseshoe Crabs and an Oystercatcher. A conglomeration of normalcy in the Rockaways.

Helicopter and War Ship
Also in Phippsburg, I took the time to carve some lasting inspirations including a Mars helicopter, a Zumwalt Destroyer war ship and some secret concentric circles.
The sunlight happened to fall between the trees perfectly when I took these photos and the color of the fall leaves accented the carvings mightily.
Phippsburg Update
For the past four years, aside from the pandemic interruption, I’ve been working in Maine. The Phippsburg Land Trust allowed me to create some permanent pieces on land near Parker Head Road. The carvings acting as a bird watching guide, showcasing life-size birds native to the region.
I carved a Great Blue Heron, a Cardinal, a Tree Swallow, a Thrush, and a Loon. I enjoyed capturing everyday occurrences like, birds carrying worms, taking off in flight, or flying through the air. These took quite some time, not to complain, the site was beautiful. That is why I am gladly going back this Spring/Summer to host some guided tours.
