I'm loving all of your sculpture pieces! The size, the materials, and the concepts are all fantastic! (I love LARGE pieces of sculpture, they almost seem more tactile to me).
Keep up the amazing work! I'm definitely adding you to my DeviantWatch list.

Hi, I was looking at your tattoos and I was wondering if you would allow me to submit your tattoo photos to my website. My website is all about tattoos and I need more photos of artwork in order to get it started. I will credit you and the artist for the photo submission.

The website is:
www.Alteredflesh.com

and you can view your photos when ever you would like.

Thank you, please let me know what you think.

crazy.
why trees?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

LaughingTree In reply to Lp-KrizzL [2011-02-23 05:32:40 +0000 UTC]

Well I've always liked trees. My name means tree in hebrew. I like climbing trees, drawing trees, looking at trees, eating their fruit, enjoying their shade and shelter... The list goes on. I find their forms complex and beautiful. They give us oxygen to breathe. They are amazing things. What's not to love?!

Thanks! Say hi to Scott for me! Not sure how long you've been working with glass, but give it time... The material is so versatile that eventually, it starts to force you to try new things!

kipsaju [2010-09-28 16:06:18 +0000 UTC]

i dont know what to say..
saying, that ur good.. isnt enough and saying that i love ur work.. not right.. saying that u know what u doing is absolutely wrong.. saying.. that ur the greatest artist ever.. would probably be the cause of me being lazy and not looking through every artist in the world. but u know.. saying that i really would like to say something really really good at you is right.
I suck at saying good things to people, and maybe u dont even need that. But let me say that you fed me. My brain just got some new crayons and its going to use them well. Thank you for that

LaughingTree In reply to kipsaju [2010-10-03 07:17:39 +0000 UTC]

Why thank you very much! I appreciate the humbling comment. I'd say the most appreciation I can get as an artist is to inspire someone else to create something they feel something about. Whether it be good feelings, or bad feelings... Just put some emotion behind your work, and it will turn out wonderful!

i like your tree tattoo, did you make the design yourself

LaughingTree In reply to xzel0 [2010-09-11 00:07:00 +0000 UTC]

It was a collaboration between myself and the tattoo artist who did the actual tattoo.

I think I told you a while ago, but I love your work I was directed back to your stuff via another glassworker and was happily reminded of how awesome your stuff is. The trees on the little sky balls are just so whimsical and pretty.... *sigh* I love it, all of it! Keep up the great work!
