Joe sent me an update letter, and some newspaper clips from "The Flint Journal", which is his local newspaper. I went into the newspaper's web and downloaded the photos he sent me in the cuttings, and have posted some here to let you know that he continues to be engrossed in his huge commission to sculpt in life size, a series of US auto industries heroes, to be cast in bronze. His region is connected with General Motors, he worked with them for many a year. His subjects will not all be local heroes, because Mr Chevrolet was Swiss born, and Mr Buick was a Scot, from Arbroath. These two gentlemen have already been sculpted by Joe. The full size Chevrolet is bronze cast, as is the head of Buick.
Joe is also picking up his gravers from time to time, and doing some commissions concurrently with his big stuff. So listen up you young whipper snappers, if you had any thoughts of retiring in your sixties, to drink six packs on some tropical beach, forget about that, Joe's got his second wind, and looks like they want quite a few more bronze auto heroes after these two.
Working in the arts lasts a lifetime, when you have the passion.
Rock on , Joe!
