Ghost Train

My "Ghost Train" is a multi award winning piece including several first place awards. It took over 25 layers and months to create what has been called a "magical" piece. The Orange Blossom Cannonball No. 2 is a wood burning steam engine which has been featured in many movies including "Oh Brother Where Art Thou" starring George Clooney. This piece has been well received winning multiple awards and juried into multiple exhibits.
