Story of Layers:

The most evident focus in my making is MEMORIES ... it is what links us together on levels most can't describe.

This project is purely indescribable ... every layer of paint has a story, every brush stroke established a composition, and every painting hangs on a wall captivating eyes, pulling at hearts, and uniting all of our stories.

Justin Vining (Professional Artist - Indy) and myself surprised Kyle Ragsdale (Professional Artist - Indy) by creating this dish that reveals years of his making.

As Mr. Ragsdale puts it - it reveals the "Art that lives with People."

Originally the dish was layers upon layers of dried paint in a butter container that Mr. Ragsdale used to mix his perfect colors and establish is thoughtful works. After hollowing out excess paint and preserving it by encapsulating it with epoxy - it became a dish of endless memories that have touch countless paintings. Preserving it more with a funky joinery box that adorns Mr. Ragdale’s signature completed this surprise present.
