art from the subconscious...
|
In a sense, all art arises from the subconscious mind. Even realistic depictions of nature and other physical objects require
the intake of the image through the five senses, processing by the subconscious and, finally, manifestation by the conscious
mind and body in the artist's chosen media.

Welcome to The Manifest Concept

At the moment I enjoy working exclusively in copper and brass, although you'll see a few pieces incorporating steel, stone
and other materials.
All pieces are clear-coated to prevent the natural darkening that occurs (especially with copper). The sculptures are
solidly put together by hand-soldering or brazing; however, the delicate nature of some of the wires used dictates gentle
handling. All pieces are carefully inspected and securely packed before shipping, but care should be used when
unpacking
Not all items shown are in stock, but all can be ordered - any of the displayed pieces can be reproduced. In-stock items
will be shipped within 48 hours. Any which need to made will take an extra 7 days or so. Please note that, being
completely handmade, your piece may vary slightly from the sample displayed here; but every attempt is made to
accurately reproduce the piece as shown.
Please note that if you have a concept or idea that you'd like to see rendered in my style, I'd be happy to work with you
in manifesting it! We all have a nearly infinite amount of information available, much of it tucked away in our
subconscious. With my help you can enjoy a made-to-order piece of art which expresses your own idea.
Check back often to see new objects. I also do custom metal polishing for automotive, motorcycle, and household items.
If you are in need of such services, there's a link on the "Extras" page.
Thanks for your interest.

In my art, for the most part I have chosen to bring images into the physical directly from the subconscious. I enjoy
manifesting concepts that don't necessarily represent objects that we can see in the physical world. I take my inspiration
mostly from spiritual, emotional, and psychological ideas, with a little bit of whimsy and practical function thrown in for
good measure.

To order
The most convenient way to order and pay is through my online shopping cart. Simply click on the drop-down box above the "Add To Cart" button, make your selection, and click the button to add it to your shopping cart. You'll be taken to your cart where you can view your total, then either return to my site to add more items or proceed to the checkout and pay via Paypal. You can view your cart at any time by clicking the "View Cart" button on each page. You don't need a Paypal account - your credit card info is only used by the Paypal service - neither I not any other merchant ever has access to your information. I have been using the Paypal system since 2000 both to pay and be paid, and have never had a problem.
If you would rather pay by personal check or money order, simply send me an email indicating the name of the item(s) you'd like and I'll reply with a mailing address and the amount of the total price including shipping. Please note that personal checks will require about an extra week for processing.
