the artist found the components of 'nido' throughout oakland and alameda.<br />
the door in front of the nido restaurant during its remodeling stage, had a 'free' sign on it, seen from the jack london square district street; the stove knobs in the pacific renaissance condo garbage; the wine rack from a vacant condo unit at the sierra; the birds nest in the artist's backyard; the driftwood from the shores of alameda; the monster eye art on 3rd street in jack london square.<br />
<br />
it was obvious to name this piece 'nido' (nest in Spanish).<br />
it should be noted that the piece lights up in beautiful aqua blue on the stove clock and around the monster eye's backer board.<br />
<br />
this master piece marks part of the beginning of jack london square's restaurant industry, and the excitement of more foodies coming to the district.<br />

</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
this angel sculpture was found in san diego, believe it our not, at sax 5th avenue outlet ... she was found simple without the bouquet and sign. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
she is now holding a bouquet of flowers made from an alert light that was used at the los alamos national laboratory (in new mexico), also note the colorful wiring at the end of the bouquet.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
the danger sign was part of an exhibition at the oakland proarts (the proarts artist invited visitors to take what they wanted off the exhibit...this is what bach took.) the danger sign completed this piece, a work in progress that lasted about 6 years! she is done now, with her sandy complexion needing regular maintenance.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
the bouquet also lights up at night, of course ... bach's signature.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
bach likes to think that his garden art is a target for thieves, so he created this piece. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
i like the piece because it reminds me how vulnerable we become when we leave our homes. we leave home in a car, bike, or walking, not thinking of the possible dangers that may come upon us ... i like to believe that god assigns his guardian angels to watch over and protect us from all those dangers, and that an angel is protecting our home while away. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
bless us all that our daily journey is protected from danger, and that we have a home to safely come home to.</div>

'on the phone with god' is bach's creation expressing his gratitude after reading 'a psalm of life', poem written by henry wadsworth longfellow.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
grateful that he can express his artistic work through reclaimed, recycled, repurposed and upcycled material, and his yearning to be useful and creative, bach has accepted the designation "artist".</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
knowing that phone booths are no longer useful, and sitting around in junk and recycling yards, or just being useless where they were once useful, bach's creative juices to build 'on the phone with god' came alive. using his signature garden plant theme, and his liking of the new pope, the final blessings of the saint francis statue sealed the piece, and thus earned the title 'on the phone with god'.</div>

while on an early morning routine dog walk on the shoreline park in alameda, near the alameda ferry, bach spotted this beautiful drift wood, that turned out to be an old utility pole. can you see the rusted pegs that were once used for workers to step on so they can climb the pole? i imagined that this utility pole floated across the bay, from san francisco, having traveled at least a couple miles to make it to alameda eventually. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
now it lays in our nottingham drive backyard, reclaimed to be garden art. there's so much texture in this piece, with its colorful dead and live organisms. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
reclaimed material is simply wonderful, a form of reincarnation. this utility pole supported the electrical and telephone cable lines that provided electricity and telephone connection to a community, for a long period of time. its now serving as another life being art. i think of the utilities we take for granted, and how civilization accepts the better and denies the worst, but forgets to truly appreciate the sources and resources that are provided.</div>

Bake Sale Betty style<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
bonsai gardening is the way to go when you have a small area of dirt space for gardening. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
bach's home-made bonsai plant collection were needing a place to be outdoors. a place that was functional, protected from the elements, at the same time displayed for enjoyment. inspired by Bake Sale Betty, bach had realized that he had a blue ironing board in his office closet ... so guess what, that unused piece of metal was reclaimed and became the display stand for his bonsai collection.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
one of our favorite places to grab a bite for a good fried chicken sandwich and yummy cookies, is Bake Sale Betty in the Temescal district of Oakland, CA. it's an eatery attracting customers having to wait in a line that's as long as several shops down. once you've ordered and paid for your food, you can eat right outside on the sidewalk. the scene is quite unique in that the customers are eating and sitting at tables that are ironing boards (reclaimed). the other unique scene is that the chef of Bake Sale Betty wears a blue wig!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
the reclaimed ironing boards at Bake Sale Betty, made me think about our changed attitudes and cultural about clothes ... no-iron dress shirts, eco-friendly dry-cleaners, laundry dryer replaces ironing, casual attire culture (iron pressed clothes is out)... i grew up ironing almost every piece of clothing in our 6-person family. today my teenage children only seen an iron and ironing board, and never used or touched them.</div>

<br />
while we waited for our amigo (our hired hand to dismantle the bumper apart from the lincoln) i remanenced about the time i took a road trip with family friends in a lincoln just like this one. the road trip started in san diego, taking interstate 5, to attend another family friend wedding in union city. thinking about that trip made me appreciate the safe and fun trip we had those many years ago. i remembered those family friends, the friends that got married, and who remained married all these years, the pleasure we have with cars, and how we take for granted the thoughtfulness that is put into producing the cars we drove then and drive now.<br />
