“At Play” railing was commissioned for a Private Residence in Hillsboro, Oregon. Client’s need for the handrail was first for the purpose of safety and secondly to fulfill their wish to add a fun sculptural element to an already whimsical property. My intention with this design was to capture the playful spirit of the couple who lived and worked on their farm. The design began as two people rolling and playing on a hillside, and evolved into adding swings as a result of collaborating with the client and fabricator during the design process. This was a fun project! Process: Made with steel square tubing, handrail stock custom rolled and pressed to follow grade onsteps, adding matching volutes, panels plasma cut from 1/8? steel plate, ground, TIG welded , then Powder-coated Yellow.

This symbol represents her uncompromising commitment to make a difference for her community. In her chest the Delta symbol takes the shape of a heart, representing her generous spirit of service that she so actively gave to transform her community. She is standing on a triangular base, a variation of the Delta design, with 9 pearls to represent the 9 cardinal virtues and the strong foundation these values create. Many thanks to the Portland Chapter, Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc. and the generous support of the Portland Development Commission who made this memorial possible.
