"Bobby"

Finished! Here's a little information about "Bobby" from my sister-in-law.
He died Jan 29, 2009 from a Grain Elevator accident where he fell 80ft and left us that cold day.
My Uncles death has made awareness to me how unsafe work places can be, and how important it is for employeers to make their employees safe.
January 2008, the state of Nebraska signed an act called the Conveyance Safety Act, which excluded Agriculture companies out of state inspections to elevators, manlifts and many other lifts. My question, how can you exclude something as big as Agriculture out of an act when Nebraska is nearly 90% Agriculture based. Today my Uncle would have been here if that was signed I truly believe that, and I am working hard for this Agriculture to be added to this act this January.

Doodle Day

So I spent a week at Disney World and bought myself a Disney Sketch book while there. I decided to do all Disney Doodles and Sketches in it. Why my shoe? Well 12 hours of walking a day at Disney for a week and your shoes seem to the most important things to you.

"Breaking Through"

Just got back from vacation and back to work on my art. I'm trying to get this series of ocean wildlife done for a show at the Bellevue Little Theatre.
