John Black, a local Gateway resident, a remarkable artisit that I have written about before made the 4 foot tall wooden sculpture to be used as a center piece for Halloween but stands on its own as a work of art all year long!

In between doing his volunteer work for the world famous televised Broward Baptist church Christmas Pageant making all the stage settings and props plus just recently doing a stage set for a local Boca Raton theatre he started a new project of what I call spinning tops, each a work of art of its own. Taking wood he finds here and there he has made the following pieces sanding, buffing, shining works of art that with a touch of the finger will send a major piece of the owrk spinning.

With the holidays coming up they make great gifts. If you are interested get in touch with me and I will send you his email address as he has never thought of selling them but they are taking over his place! :O)

If you live in the Fort Lauderdale area be sure to go see Mr & Mrs Shtick--you might want to buy it!!! In any case be sure to vote for it as a winner!!
