Artist's Comments

Stainless steel, titanium, and topaz.


i really needed this.

i was asked if i would be interested in donating a piece for a fundraiser for the aids foundation of chicago ([link]) and aids marathon training program ([link]). this is what i made. it was nice to make something without any outside influence. the auction takes place on july 19th in oak park, il. please follow the links to find out the specifics. there will be a garden party and a silent auction. if you live in the area, please stop by. i know there will be some very cool stuff to bid on. put a part of that "stimulus payment" to some good use.


the design was just something that popped into my head when i got into my studio.


it feels good to do something like this...and i really needed it.

~noformdesign is donating aids fundraiser in an auction for the aids foundation of chicago. I bet many will put a bid on this - not just for the cause, but also for it's wonderful clean design that has a sense of sliding and high craftmanship. Maybe you will be one of the bidders?

It's absolutely gorgeous. Congrats on being asked to do something like that! I hope it brings in top dollar. Wish I was in the area... but I'm across the country. ):

Beautiful piece for a great cause.

The proportions are perfect and I love the topaz and titanium mix. The placement of the stone makes this piece for me; that and all the curved lines in contrast with the angles and facets of the stones.

I hope it fetches a very pretty penny.

Fantastic.

Love the art, before yourself.
:iconmyana:
man, this is gorgeous! Both the cause and the outcome!

I really, really love the design, it has the sense of sliding - that you can slide it and hide it's treasure. Clean and with that little extra touch of.. thought I guess. Your designs always feel so well thought through and that adds to the overall feel of high craftmanship.

Goregous, and fanastic work!

(Glad to see you are submitting again! ;) )

Design is nothing without function

Absolutely beautiful. I dig how the clean curves contrast with the straight, sharp cuts of the topaz, but they work very well together. The way you've encased the stone just makes it look all the more precious.

I love all of your pieces, but your work really sings when it's just you behind the wheel. This should be a huge draw, and I hope it raises a lot of money for the cause. :)
