Recent Press

Blue Boat Home has been in a good amount of press recently.

The 2010 City Weekly Arty Awards were a few weeks back, and we got one for ‘Best Recycled Works’.  Keep in mind that we were somewhere in between ‘Best Zombie Podcast’ and ‘Best use of Chocolate’.  Still, it was a fun night and a good chance for the Pallet Bench and Ammo Table to be on display and get some use.

I also started showing in the Sugarhouse Gallery.  Stop by and you can see the Bomb Planter, Crankshaft Table, Tractor Table, and Pallet Table on display.  Also at the Sugarhouse Gallery is the work of Julie Lucas, an incredibly talented and insightful sculptor that also works with found objects and three-dimensional mosaics.  We took a field trip together to find new material and both had a blast trading ideas and thoughts on art.

The Ammo Table is currently showing at the Rio Gallery for the Utah Statewide Mixed Media show, and got a Juror’s Award.  The show will be through Nov.

I was also recently interviewed by Shelterpop and Design Milk’s Jamie Derringer about Zero Waste design.  The article focuses on designers’ attempts to reduce their ecological impact and make fantastic stuff with purpose.


Blue Boat Home is now also listed with the Nine Dot Arts, a corporate art consultancy based out of Denver.

In addition, I’m represented at Gallery MAR in Park City.  Stop by and enjoy their fantastic location and wonderful collection on Main Street.
