Earl and Bonita are restoring a house on
30 acres outside of Martinsville, Indiana. The structure used to
be a barn and the couples bedroom is in the hay loft. The doors
and windows in their home were rescued from buildings that were being
demolished. Their living room is a log cabin from the 1800s.
It was discovered when another structure was being torn down. Earl
and Bonita were able to purchase the cabin and have it moved to their
property. It was attached sometime later when a family reunion
provided the needed manpower. A Victorian style solarium was added
for light and is the acting kitchen until the new kitchen is finished.

Inspired by art history and a niece's
collection of piggy banks, Earl is creating a series of Tattooed Swine
of the World. Each of his pieces highlights a particular pig with
some form of tattooing. The swine may exist as does the tattooing
style,
but the combination of the two is strictly Earl's.
