When I went down to MN a few weeks ago, I got some photos from the Anurag guys, Here are a few from the early days of our association.
Anurag Art crew, Little Crow and myself; Minnehaha Park, Minneapolis (1994?).
Ed Archie Noisecat, artist (Bio. @ Noisecat.com)(foreground); Nuu-chah-nulth artist and Elder, Joe David (Stonington Gallery Bio.) dedicating the statue.
Frank and I inspecting a sandcast mold. Too neat to be one of mine.
My decoration (acrylic, crayon and ink) of the Anurag Art bathroom door.
Eric's bronze sculpture, 'twisted mask'; early collaboration with Anurag.At this stage, the spruing's been cut off and the ceramic shell sandblasted off. Next steps; hanging attachments welded on, surface finishing and patination. Wikipedia 'patina'

I'd love to have a door - any door - that looks like that! It's gorgeous. By the way, what is a sand cast mold, and what is this particular mold of/for?
A "sand-cast mold" is a negative cast of an object made with 1) sand, of course and
2) some sort of binder to "hold" the sand in the "volume of space" that surrounds any object.
3)The "object" is then removed, after the sand has taken the form of the "space" around it.
When bronze is poured into the "space" left behind by an object, in the solidified sand, then the "object" is recreated.
No; I don't know what this particular mold contained.
and it looks like you need a snowshovel man. come on, spend the couple bucks. you know you can paint shovels too right?
whoops, wrong spot for that last comment. i was refering to the photo of the bingorage headquarters/snowfort in an above entry.
