SCULPTING WITH PORTLAND CEMENT
After seeing the Tree of Life at Animal Kingdom I wanted to learn how to sculpt using portland cement. I volunteered to help mix and paint this exhibit at the reptile house in the Cincinnati Zoo.

Aquariums are beautiful pieces of art as well as calming to the mind. I've taken care of aquariums for over 40 years. After much experience my goal was to create a thriving environment that is also low maintenance.

TECH TANK
This 100 gallon bowed tank was built into a library I designed and created.
NANO TANK
This 2 gallon tank is home to a colony of cherry shrimp and live plants. Special care is taken to maintain a balanced environment.
VIAQUARIUM
This 60 gallon tank was engineered to be a self sufficient ecosystem. Part water - part land, it was home for fish, turtles, lizards, and frogs. All cables and tubes were hidden the stone backdrop and hand made vines. There are waterfalls, small ponds, and fog. At night the crickets, frogs, and water made music of the rainforest!
With a home made filter system and built-in plumbing, water changes become a breeze. This high tech tank provides a self sufficient home to many living plants as well as fish and shrimp. As you can see by the plants the system is thriving very well!
