I'm sure the ARod out of syringes is possible, but I just want him to go away.

Hi Hank.....that certainly can be possible. I'll be in touch soon to see if we can work something out.

you'll love it here sir
Thanks - I am already loving the reception and kindness I am seeing. The first, absolute first piece of art that I made like this was the T206 Wagner. I made it back in '09 for the 100th anniversary. I consider it very "rough" as compared to my most recent pieces like the Aaron, Musial, and Clemente. I feel like I have grown considerably as an artist, and I know I have much more growing to go. For some reason, I can't get the Wagner piece to load like the others. You can see it here:

maybe I missed it in the descriptions......how big are your typical works?
Most of the pieces are in the 34" x 24" range. Some are slightly smaller. Some are a bit larger. For many of my earlier pieces, I even counted the exact amount of common cards it took to create each piece. I have gotten away from that, as I now work on several at once and keeping up with the numbers is virtually impossible.


Here are a few others I have made from the past couple of years:

George Brett from Pine Tar:



Reggie Jackson from Straws (The Straw that Stirred the Drink!):



Ozzie Smith from leather scraps:



Stan Musial from cut cards:



Roberto Clemente from cut cards (just finished this one a couple of days ago):



Jackie Robinson from cut cards:
