The Clone Wars are back on Disney plus! To celebrate, I pulled down some very old burnings from our friends from the show and did some touch up work. First up was from our favorite Togruta, Ahsoka Tano! Portrayed by the wonderful Ashley Eckstein! We have met Ashley many times and she is the sweetest person in the whole world! She was always kind and patient, we even met her mother and sat and talked to her for a bit. Her husband David said I could video tape whatever I wanted and not pay attention to the rules! She has signed many pieces, a few that have been auctioned off for charity through different organizations but this one is our favorite! Ashley signed this before there was ever a wood burning on it. The Disney handler at the time refused to let me get it signed because it was blank but Ashley recognized us as her "wood burning family" and signed it anyway. That was 4 years ago! Here it is today after being reburned with new techniques and experience!

I can finally share with you a super secret project we have been working on for Rancho Obi-Wan https://ranchoobiwan.org/ Rancho has partnered with The Prop Store https://www.propstore.com/DeathStarAuction to auction off 30 amazing Death Stars created by talented artist from all over the world! The auctions go live on February 10th and run through the 21st! I was lucky enough to be asked to participate in the event! Please check out the auctions and the gallery pieces and spread the word #DeathStarAuction on social media! Thank you!
We were each given a Death Star to work with and were told to go crazy! Here is day one! Nothing to see here move along....The trick was how am I going to incorporate my form of art into this?!

Todays Picture is the backside of the Vader board! I didn't want to leave it blank and miss out on an opportunity to burn so I burned Rancho Obo-Wan's logo and did a negative burn of my signature which I thinks looks pretty cool!
