Wire and Textile Sculptures

I am working on some new textile and wire sculptures that are an extension or a continuation of the Cavus sculptures.  Reworking the armatures to be less expensive, yet still flexible and lightweight. Not sure if I will still be able to get the organic, airy feel while still referencing organisms and atoms.

I have also decided to create some unique and interesting business cards and finish up my website. Not sure what is more work - creating the art or finding a venue so that others can see it...
