Hand Tools
The Craftsmen Collection contains working man's tools recreated in copper pennies. The sculptures are entirely hollow and true to size. The ghostlike representations of the original toolsquestion the value of labor and time inherent in the object. Sculptures from this series have been acquired by numerous private collections and the Smithsonian's Renwick Gallery in WashingtonDC.

Power Tools
The Craftsmen Collection: Power Tools is a progression of the series into more aggressive electric tools. The power tools are recreated in copper pennies, including the cord and plug. The sculpturesare entirely hollow and true to size. The ghostlike representations of the original tools question the value of labor and time inherent in the object. Sculptures from this series have been collectedby the Fuller Craft Museum in Brockton MA.
