Giang
9/29/47 - 11/1/00
Giang began doing stained glass artwork as a hobby in 1982, while helping his wife [now ex-wife] on a project of hers in Key Largo, Florida. While chaufferring his wife to get supplies, he discovered that, with the right equipment, creating stained glass artwork was not too difficult for him; even though Giang says, "I had trouble drawing stick people". Following his return to North Carolina, "for the lack of anything (legal) to keep my mind {?} busy", he converted his basement to an assembly plant for the hobby he had acquired. Unfortunately, he has given away most of the stained glass artwork, except for these pieces...

Sculptor

In the late 1980's, Ron began his technique in bronze sculpting in the remote mountain area of Libby, Montana. The casting process is very time consuming from the beginning of the sculpture to pouring the piece in bronze. In 1990 Ron Adamson built his own foundry. In July of '97, a move to Gardnerville Nevada and the commission to sculpt a life sized man with a guitar, from the "Eagles" song "Take it Easy", had stopped bronze production on all other bronze sculptures. The sculpture for the "Standin' On A Corner" Park, is now complete and newer sculptures are now becoming available..

Deepsees

For most of his life, he has been aware of his ability to accomplish artistic endeavors well. As art seemed like recreation, he sought a more technical field in which to apply his talents. Prior to his 3D modeling and animation, he worked in metallurgy and was a partner in a sucessful engineering and calibration firm located in beautiful St. Augustine, Florida. With the advent of faster, reasonably priced processors, he decided to sell his interest in the partnership and become a full-time freelance 3D animator. The year 2000 will see the release of his first CD of commercial advertising animation and music scores.

JAFO

His interest in eggs began with pictures of Faberge eggs in a book of his wife's. Being a modeller, he was fascinated with the work that went into creating them. He later discovered that Faberge did not use real eggs and was very disappointed. JAFO started hollowing out eggs and creating small art scenes to go inside of them. His first insert was a small nativity scene carved from wood. Since then he has created many different works of art for the inside of the eggs...from airplanes and star ships to a miniature Vietnam memorial of the three soldiers. His favorite eggs contain sailing ships and light houses.

ScootR

About five years ago he was trying to sell his Koral Sculptures to SeaWorld. Though they liked the sculptures, they thought the Maple bases were too fancy, and asked him to come back when he had found a more suitable base material. Of all the different materials with which he experimented, sand seemed to match their theme the best. It took 6 months of trial and error to find a binder system that gave the look of a "wet sand" texture. Once the formula was discovered, ScootR started making all kinds of shapes and colors. He then taught himself how to make molds so that he could duplicate pieces he liked. All these commissioned works and more, can take from just a few days to a week to complete.
