When people see my art for the first time they ask, "How did you come up with this idea?" Actually, my "torched plastic" has been in development since July 4, 1987, when I was living in Atlanta. Some friends and I went to Lake Lanier for a picnic. Since my brain already had art on it, I took my lighter and began burning and shaping the plastic picnic utensils. I was fascinated by this medium, and experimented with it for about four years until my needs grew and I graducted to the plastic bucket.
