I installed my sculptures in the Redlands roundabout this morning!!! This is such an exciting and affirming moment for me - it was only a short 7 years ago that I stopped punching in and began chasing my dreams! If you believe in it and work hard - you can do it! Thank you to the @city_of_grand_junction for allowing me the great privilege of displaying my artwork in my hometown! This project couldn't have happened without the help of a lot of people - thanks in particular go to Troy Reynolds and his team at FCI Constructors Inc, @burnerconstructionllc , @sunstate.equipment , Randy Beard, and @shanachiecarroll 📸 More pictures are to come or see it in person! 🐏 #junktownrams #sculptorsofinstagram #coloradoart #coloradoartist #bighornsheep #fenderart #carart #metalsculpture #publicart (at Redlands, Colorado) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cox34G_PYzv/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

The Redlands roundabout is getting some concrete pads today! 🧡 They will have plenty of time to cure before my bighorn sheep sculptures are installed this winter.
