A YEAR SINCE THE LAST BLOG




GREETINGS & SALUTATIONS,




THINGS ARE HAPPENING AT RESURRECTED ART.



IN AN EFFORT TO BE MORE FOCUSED & GENERATE POSITIVE CASH FLOW

WE ARE GOING TO START REPLICATING A LIMITED # OF OUR CREATIONS



IT IS SAID THAT ONLY 5% OF ALL ARTISTS MAKE A SUSTAINABLE
LIVING ON DOING FREEHAND, SINGLE CREATIONS

THAT INVOLVE LONG TERM COMMITMENTS.



UNTIL THE DAY COMES & UNTIL WE GET COMMISSIONED TO

DO SOME 6 FIGURE WORKS, RESURRECTED ART WILL

DO WHAT IT SAID IT WOULD NEVER DO. MASS PRODUCTION :(



THE ONE REDEEMING FACTOR IS THAT ALL PRODUCTION WILL

TAKE PLACE LOCALLY IN THE MIDWEST & HAVE NO

DEALINGS WITH ANY OFFSHORE PRODUCTION OPERATIONS :)



IT HAS BEEN A YEAR SINCE OUR LAST BLOG

ALLOT OF WATER HAS GONE UNDER THE BRIDGE

I HAVE FIRED UP THE OLE' ARC WELDER (STICK WELDING)



I FORGOT HOW MUCH MORE EXHAUST THERE IS

& HOW MUCH MORE SPLATTER THERE IS WHEN

DOING STICK WELDING. NOT TO MENTION THE HAND

HAS TO STAY IN MOTION WHILE THE STICK IS BEING CONSUMED


THE MAIN ADVANTAGE THAT A WELDING ROD HAS, IS THAT IT'LL REACH

TIGHTER AREAS THAN A WELDING GUN WILL FIT INTO.

I'VE BEEN WIRE FEED WELDING SINCE 94'



WE'VE ALSO BROUGHT OUT THE OLE


CUTTING TORCH. OXY - ACETELYNE

WHEN CUTTING WE USE A PLASMA CUTTER A SHEAR, OR HIGH SPEED

CUT OFF WHEELS



THE CUTTING TORCH IS USED TO CREATE HEATED VARIATIONS OF COLOR

IN CERTAIN METALS. THESE COLORS LOOK LIKE THEY HAVE BEEN AIR BRUSHED

ON BUT THEY ARE A DIRECT RESULT OF THE TORCH CREATING HEAT

THUS CHANGING THE COLOR OF THE STEEL. THESE COLORS ARE THEN LOCKED


IN WITH A CLEAR POLY URETHANE FINISH.

RESURRECTED ART HAS DECIDED NOT TO TAKE PART IN THE CURRENT RECESSION



EVEN THOUGH WE'VE TAKEN SEVERAL HITS PERSONALLY, PROFESSIONALLY

EMOTIONALLY, SPIRITUALLY WE WILL NOT LET IT AFFECT US

PSYCHOLOGICALLY, OR PHYSICALLY. WE WILL PRESS ON TOWARDS THE MARK



WE LOOK FORWARD TO BRINGING THE GENERAL BUYING PUBLIC, AFFORDABLE

UNIQUE YARD ART & METAL SCULPTURES. ALTHOUGH THEY ARE REPLICATED

LOOK FOR SLIGHT VARIATIONS IN EVERY INDIVIDUAL PIECE OF WORK.



THERE WILL BE PLENTY OF MUNITIA FORTH COMING ON A WEEKLY BASIS

TOPIC SUCH AS POLOTIC, BEING GREEN, ORGANIC FOODS, HEALTH,


HOME MAINTENANCE WILL BE COVERED.

RENTING TENTS IN KANSAS DURING THE SPRING

FOR THOSE WHO MAY NOT BE AWARE, & FOR THOSE WHO CARE



I DO HAVE A DAY JOB DURING THE SPRING SUMMER & FALL. THAT JOB IS PARTY & EVENT PLANNING ALONG WITH EXPEDITING THE ITEMS REQUESTED FOR THE SPECIAL OCCASION.



EVERY SPRING IT SEEMS AS THOUGH THE WIND IS MILD ENOUGH TO SET UP OUR TENTS. HOWEVER LATER ON IN THE EVENING OR THE FOLLOWING DAY THOSE SAME WINDS BECOMES GUSTS. SUCH WAS THE CASE THIS PAST WEEK
comic relief

DID YOU HEAR ABOUT THE GUY WHO WENT TO THE DOCTOR? THE DOCTOR ASKED WHAT SEEMS TO BE THE PROBLEM? THE GUY ANSWERED ONE DAY I THINK I'M A WIG WAM THE NEXT DAY I THINK I'M A TEE PEE. THE DOCTOR SAID I KNOW WHAT YOUR PROBLEM IS!!!

"YOU'RE TWO TENTS" get it too tense


THIS PAST THURSDAY, WE TOOK TWICE AS LONG AS IT NORMALLY WOULD TO GET TWO 20 X 80S ERECTED IN A STIFF BREEZE. THAT EVENING THE STORMS ROLLED IN & THE TORNADO SIRENS WENT OFF. YET OUR TENTS WITHSTOOD THE TEST OF TIME (UP TO THAT POINT THE TIME WAS ABOUT 6 HOURS).



DURING STORM #1 THE SIRENS WERE GOING OFF & ON EVERY FIVE TO TEN MINUTES

WHILE MY WIFE & DAUGHTER WERE NERVOUS, I FOCUSED ON WHAT THE REAL TIME WEATHER REPORTS WERE FOR OUR AREA. no imminet, threat just sirens



I CONVEYED TO MY FAMILY THAT I WAS GOING TO HAVE A HURRICANE PARTY

UNTIL THE STORM BLEW THRU. JUST TO HELP EASE THE TENSION!



AFTER STORM # 1 CAME & WENT I WENT TO BED, ONLY TO WAKE UP @ 2:00 A.M. TO REPORTS OF 80 MILE AN HOUR HURRICANE FORCE STRENGTH WINDS.

I COULD OF PULLED A LIEUTENANT DAN & CLIMBED UP ON THE ROOF & ASKED GOD THE FOLLOWING QUESTION, "DO YOU CALL THIS A STORM? THIS IS A SHOW DOWN RIGHT NOW, YOU & ME!" the movie Forrest Gump

INSTEAD, I DID WHAT ANY SENSIBLE TENT RENTAL OPERATER WOULD DO!

I ROLLED OVER & WENT BACK TO SLEEP.



AMAZINGLY, ENTIRE BLDINGS WERE LEVELED, ROOF TOPS OF WAREHOUSES WERE TORE OFF, EVEN RAILROAD CARS WERE BLOWN OVER. (HIGH PROFILE AUTO TRANSPORTS). WHEN THE SMOKE OF BATTLE HAD CLEARED, OUR TWO TENTS STILL STOOD TALL.

THIS TIME I FELT LIKE FORREST GUMP WHEN HIS SHRIMP BOAT WAS THE ONLY ONE LEFT IN OPERATION AFTER THEY RODE OUT THEIR STORM.



"STUPID IS AS STUPID DOES" F.G.


WHEN IT WAS ALL SAID & DONE & AFTER I HEARD WHAT HAD HAPPEN TO MY COUNTER PARTS & THEIR TENTS DURING THE SAME TIME FRAME, I KNEW THAT IT WAS MORE THAN DUMB LUCK, IT WAS MORE THAN GOOD CLEAN LIVING, IT WAS MORE THAN MY CHARMING PERSONALITY THAT PULLED US THRU.



IT WAS DIVINE INTERVENTION


"HE WHO HAS NO NAME
HAS SURELY
GUIDED MY STEPS"

the movie Ten Commandments


FOR THIS REASON I CONTINUE TO FOCUS OUR ENERGIES TO THAT PURPOSE.
THE PURPOSE OF WORKING FOR A HIGHER CALLING, WORKING FOR A POWER THAT IS GREATER THAN ALL OF US!

AS OUR ENERGIES ARE BEING REDIRECTED TOWARDS THE METAL SCULPTURING/3-D ART INDUSTRY, WE WILL BE BACKING OFF ON PARTY PLANNING & EVENT RENTALS

THANK GOD FOR THAT.

THESE DEALS CAN TURN INTO HOLLYWOOD PRODUCTIONS
THAT NEED TO BE CARRIED OUT WITH MILITARY PRECISION!!!!


WHEN THE DAY COMES THAT WE ARE TOTALLY OUT OF THE SPECIAL EVENT BUSINESS, IT'LL BE NICE TO KNOW THAT WE'LL HAVE MEMORIES FROM THIS "SEASON OF LIFE". & CAN TELL THOSE STORIES SOMEDAY TO OUR
GRANDKIDS!
HAPPY CINCO DE MAYO

HAVE A WONDERFUL SPRING,


KENNY

CASTING YOUR SHADOW

SCULPTURE & METAL ART AFICIONADOS

PICTURED @ LEFT IS A CROSS MADE OF STEEL
& FORGED "FLEAR DE LIS"

IT IS JUST A COPULATION OF SEVERAL PIECES OF STEEL THAT REPRESENT THE ULTIMATE PRICE THAT WAS PAID FOR MANKIND/HUMANKIND'S
FORGIVENESS.

J.C. WATTS, RETIRED OKLAHOMA CONGRESSMAN, FORMER TWO TIME NATIONAL QUARTERBACK OF THE OKLAHOMA SOONERS, CURRENT ORDAINED MINISTER & PROMINENT BUSINESSMAN & CHAIRMAN OF J.C. WATTS COMPANIES. STATES THE FOLLOWING

"YOU MAY BE THE ONLY BIBLE PEOPLE READ!" IS YOUR VERSION THE DIVINE ONE INSPIRED BY GOD HIMSELF? OR IS YOUR VERSION THE ONE THAT TAKES THE EASY WAY OUT?
THE ONE THAT IS MADE UP THRU SELF INTERPRETATION, THE ONE THAT IS NOT CHECKED OUT & CROSS REFERENCED BY THE COUNSEL OF MANY.

DOES YOUR YARD ART SAY THE SAME ABOUT WHO YOU ARE & WHAT IS THE MESSAGE YOU DESIRE TO CONVEY. DOES YOUR YARD ART MAKE A STATEMENT OR IS IT JUST ANOTHER PIECE OF CARBON STEEL PLACED IN THERE TO GIVE YOU A GOOD WARM FEELING?

ZIG ZIGLAR SAYS "YOU CAN GET A GOOD WARM FEELING BY TAKING A BATH"
BUT IF YOU WANT PERMANENT RESULTS, APPLY YOUR DAILY THOUGHTS & IDEAS
INTO ACTION.

WHAT KIND OF SHADOW DOES YOUR YARD ART CAST???
