 Two Stingrays


When I was a kid, we got two Stingray bikes from some friends that were moving. They were green and purple. About ten years ago I made a purple Stingray, about the size of my hand.  A brother loved it so much I promised to give it to him if it did not sell after a year or two. About five years ago I saw a  photo of a fancy three-speed model on the internet. I challenged myself to make a larger, more elaborate sculpture. For the rims of this sea green model, I used embroidery hoops (pink!). Now I really have to let "Little Purple" go!
