Driftwood Art & other Unique Works by Howard

Driftwood Art & other Unique Works by Howard A place where the hidden images in Nature can find a release. A building and creating of pieces not normally intended to represent the piece.

Abstract in a view, but a recognizable image. The two great life sources for earth is the sun and the ocean. I quote the Buffett song : A Pirate looks at Forty. "and in your belly you hold the treasures few have ever seen, most of em dreams, most of em dreams". I use only the material that the ocean has returned to land that she has held in her bussom. How she began to hold them in her soul could

be many reasons, Hurricanes, falling from a cargo ships, or the shells that line her floor. She has released them back to becomes someones dream.

This is a whimsical piece made from rusty junk gathered over a long period of time from walks with my dog, and plundering trash piles etc. I titled it with the purpose of the pieces in mind. Old rusty hinge for the locker lid. The door hook to keep it locked. The Fishes made from rusty stuff and shells. The coins to reflect his gold Doubloon's (but they are pennies and a nickel, I am a starving artist...lol) Last the stressed piece of plywood represents all the years sitting at the bottom of the sea...

As the area grows and more tourist arrive, its become more and more difficult to find beautiful shells like these. The beach is cleaned nightly by a City Machine that just destroys the shells.
