Hello, world . . .

This is going to be my special place to rant and carry on about anything that's related to my primary passion. There's a thin line between arts and crafts in the field of altered arts and assemblage. My goal is to stay just past that line so I can refer to myself as an artist, and my work as art. I suppose that's in the eye of the beholder, so you can make up your own mind.

I have a website that features my works for sale and explains my customizing process -- I call it "participatory". Check here for custom altered art and wedding supplies: http//www.fragileindustries.com. At this stage, there are few images in the "gallery" and "shop" pages. I'm building the site myself, and the learning curve is steep, and to make it worse, I'm a terrible perfectionist. It should be fully displayed within a week or two.

I'll post more on specific topics soon.

It's good to be here, and I look forward to hearing from you all.
