This piece made of paper clay, paper mache and wire captures the timeless essence of the American west and the lone sheriff, paying tribute to their duty, resilience, and unwavering presence in history. He is adorned in a striking red shirt and sheriff’s badge which stands as a powerful symbol of honor, authority, and the deep-rooted traditions of the frontier towns.
The circular base, decorated with stars and stripes, serves as a reminder of the American values of law enforcement; justice, integrity, and service to their communities. This connection is especially significant as we recognize National Oklahoma Day, a celebration of a state that has long been shaped by frontier justice and the rugged spirit of the lawmen who patrolled its plains.
Oklahoma’s sheriffs have played an essential role in protecting its people, embodying the pioneering strength of the Old West while adapting to the demands of the modern era. This piece is more than a representation—it is a tribute to those who carried the badge with pride and protected the legacy of Oklahoma’s sheriff tradition.

“Fuglies: Trash into Treasure”

In a world driven by perfection and disposability, Fuglies are a rebellion stitched in thread and stuffed with second chances.

Each bear is lovingly crafted from discarded materials—shaved, patched, and reimagined to embrace their imperfection with joy.

Their asymmetry, worn textures, and mischievous smiles tell stories of resilience and transformation. From forgotten fabric scraps to treasured companions, these creatures are proof that beauty lies in the broken, the bizarre, and the boldly different.

The first lives in Reno, Nevada, and is surrounded by a growing circle of curious, kindred friends, the original Fugly reminds us that love and laughter thrive where others see only waste. This is not just art—it’s a celebration of character, community, and creative reuse.
