Gabe Lueders and Dave Selden have been friends since high school, and artists since birth. This is a new means of collaboration for both, separated by many miles; Gabe is in Iowa, Dave in Oregon.
Well, I think I’ve let this puppy age long enough in Kari and Andrew’s garage. I’m selling Labyrinth: the Mini-Golf Hole on Craigslist. Please pass this along to anyone you think might be remotely interested in it, or at the very least, amused by it.

UPDATE: The Labyrinth has been SOLD. Thanks for all your interest!
Drew is trying to raise money today with a “fun-raiser” for his new gallery, Art Buy the Inch. He’s selling 100 copies each of 10 original prints, at the low, low price of $10 per. You can buy the prints in person today in downtown Portland, or order online at Mohdi.com for $12 per. Drew, count me in for a set.
Wow, that was a long hiatus. Sorry. I have always been a pretty flighty artist, working in fits and spurts with long periods of inactivity. Last night I began what I hope is another long period of activity, picking up my “building” sculpture I began earlier in January (see also: 139 Pieces of Wood, 133 Holes).
Here’s my plan for the scultpure again:
All 133 pieces, glued up on waxed paper so they wouldn’t stick to my benchtop. I didn’t use any clamps or masking tape since the pieces were so small, just rubbed them together and squeezed by hand for a few seconds. Seems to have worked pretty well. Thanks, Titebond III
After about an hour, I had to see what the finished product might look like, so I stood the pieces up and taped them together.
… which led to a bunch of photographs. I really like how it looks in the darkness with a single light source. It should look cool in daytime too. The contrast between the woods will be even more apparent once the wood has a coat of finish on it.
