Not having posted for four weeks, you'd be forgiven for thinking I'd dropped off the face of the earth, but I was just having an extended Christmas holiday and settling back into work again.

In the coming week is the start of my 6th semester in college.
I hope to make tons of art and plenty of jewelry.
With a new vision for my work, a sharp focus on conceptuality pertaining specifically to antitheism and other social beliefs, I hope you all find this new work interesting.

Artist Craig Barnes first saw the Futuro house as a child while visiting family in South Africa. Over the years that followed he revisited it time and time again, dreaming of one day owning such a magnificently odd construction.
In April 2013, an unexpected chain of events led Craig to buy the Futuro…
