Custom Cityscape Clock for Boston Children's Hospital

Justin and I are home from Hawaii and I hope to post a few photos as soon as I finish playing catchup! But first, I wanted to post the new custom clock that I finished just before leaving for the land of Aloha. I've been working with a gallery in Boston over the last few years, creating clocks for a children's hospital there. Here is the newest of 3 cityscape clocks and a glimpse of other children's clocks I've made for the children's hospital in the past...

Cityscape 3 Wall Clock / approximately 12" x 45"

Cityscape 2 Wall Clock / approximately 12" x 45"

Johnhanclock Cityscape Wall Clock / approximately 10" x 40"

Airplane Clock / approximately 24" length

Dragonfly Clock / Approximately 24" tall

I'll be back later with my newest Block Clock art clock designs!

Introducing the Block Clocks

We have had a few flurries in Portland over the past few days. A true novelty experience in a city where the thermometer is mostly stuck on 42 degrees F from November through March/April. But, the sky has also been amazingly blue and the sunshine bright enough to make you cry. For these things and so much more, I am grateful!
I've had a bit of a creative surge and purge this week - a welcome feeling after the holiday blur. My latest family of clocks (12, I think) are the Block Clocks. I've made one before with the idea of making more. And, now, after looking around my studio at all the unused 3" painted squares in a variety of designs, the Block Clocks have been born. The Block Clock family is made using 3" painted squares to build a usually bright, always contemporary clock. Here are a few shots of the Block Clocks in progress...

And, here is a glimpse of one Block Clock that I'm making using Jonah's monster blocks. He wasn't interested in designing the rest of the clock, but he did paint the monsters and tell me I could do whatever I wanted with them. Naturally, I'm making a clock! We are still discussing what his cut will be when the clock sells....Any suggestions?

Happy Weekend!
