I am an artist. I make modern mobiles and have a website that sells them. http://www.humboldt1.com/~mobiles/
I love to create art, a big Calder fan obviously, musician (suzuki violin raised, a bass player in a band in the 80's) and follower of modern architecture, and just about everything mid century modern design style.
Born and raised in Champaign-Urbana, IL moved to Eureka, California in '79. So beautiful up in Northern CA, giant redwoods, mountains, incredible ocean views ...and so very isolated and unpopulated. No wallmarts here! Yeah! A great place for artists to create. Many green enviromentally organic thinkers here, and I am one of them.

It is 28"W x 34"H Black, red and white plastic petals and stainless steel arms. If anyone has seen this mobile, please contact me ASAP. » READ MORE
