Sundials are an incredible thing. They really work! I have made several equatorial sundials like this one out of stone and metal. One variation that is completely adjustable has recently been patented. The one shown to the left is located at Ohio State University. It weighs overt 13,000 lbs. Nothing immaterial about this design!

I am an artist. I mostly sculpt. I use whatever material I can get my hands on or what the budget can bear. Material is energy and my work is about transforming a material into something else...no matter what that material might be. I worked in metal for many years, but my latest passion is with stone. I have a Master's Degree in Industrial Design and so I also design and invent new kinds of objects. I am a part time university professor. One of my classes is titled: Design Innovation. It is about inventing things. I also teach a course on Materials in an Architecture School. I find it difficult to sit still. This is often annoying to the men in my life (or the men who used to be in my life), but I just can't help it. I love to spend my time being creative. That is and has always been the most important thing to me.
