I like to make giant sculptures and sometimes I make tiny sculptures and occasionally make medium sculptures.

"Together Together” is about community engagement and personal connections. The lines in the heads are communication and conversations while the lines and voids on the body are roadmaps of life’s journey that make us uniquely who we are.

My hope is that this sculpture represents what unites us in similarity rather than what divides us in discord. We are all in this Together Together.

2.5 years of planning, 14months of fabrication, 2,000 hours of my work, 1,500 hours of assistant help, 500+ hours of sponsor/logistics help, 26 feet tall, 18,000 pounds. This sculpture pushed me to my limits and I'm better for it!

Thanks to Deborah McAuliffe Senner and Allied Arts OKC for spearheading this and making it happen for the community!!!

Thanks to OKC Convention Center for believing in the project.

Thanks to my team in alphabetical order, not preference 😉: Andrew Ferguson, Bradly Zozaya, Chad Odom, Paul Bell and Zane Slack for all the hard work you put into this project.

Thanks to the City of Oklahoma City, Randy Marks, Mike Mays, Lingo Construction, Collins Peck, Valerie and Naifeh fine Jewlery, Dolese, Wallace Design Collective, SRB Engineering, Evans Roofing and Northwest Crane Services.

Special thanks to Rick and Lerri Cooper and W & W / AFCO Steel for their generous donation that made it possible.

Installed the gate "Alchemy" in midtown yesterday. Thanks for appreciating my work and letting me do my thing Elise Kilpatrick.
Now onward to the convention center install in 2 weeks and finishing up a 6 piece stainless steel bird commission. Exciting things in the works!

Well, today was the big delivery day of "Together Together! A lot of people doubted the Econolines payload capacity but, It easily handled the 26 feet tall 18,000 pound sculpture.

Be on the look out for many more install photos!

Working on a few sterling silver cuff orders. This is start to finish and yes this is how fast I move in the studio after 12 cups of coffee. 🤣
