Wow. It looks amazing. Just beautiful. I knew I picked the right person for the job.
This is the reply I received from a customer this week, after sending along photos of a project I've been working to complete for quite some time. It's titled, The Flaming Chalice, and it was a commissioned piece made of copper, brass and Virgin Islands mahogany, specifically for a Unitarian Universalist church in Danbury, Connecticut.
Quite a while back, a church member had contacted me after he'd seen a similar sculpture I'd donated to the Nelson County Arts Council auction. He said he'd been wanting a chalice for his church, so we agreed I would render a design for the congregation to review. After a few modifications, it was approved, and I went to work.
A chalice itself has long been a symbol of liberal religion, and this is my rendition of it. I took one last snap to remember it by, as it will soon be delivered to its rightful home. - Don
