OH MY HEAD!
OH MY HEAD! is an expression of, "I can't keep up with the craziness of the world!" Everyday there is something that blows me away and I must hold on! Whether it is who is running the country and the devastating decisions they make, the latest environmental disaster, or the scary way people behave, all contribute to this emotion. I do believe this sculpture is an accurate reflection of our collective consciousness...a different version of Edward Munch's, "The Scream".

Details...
Two different type of woods have been used in the sculpture. The figure is from a found laminated maple cutting board. The "cliff" base was a timber floating in the Ocean and had come to rest on the shore. The figure and the base are joined together by magnets which allows for easy removal for shipping.
The finish on the "cliff" is oil paint mixed with teak oil. Copper metal dust was then rubbed into the surface. The figure has several coats of varnish.
