John Estes is my devoted husband, and loving caregiver, in life and in art.  He is the Artisan who not only canoodles tirelessly about every sculpture in the works, but also executes the detailed artisanal work required in turning found metal objects into art.  He is patient with the many changes I want during the process, and feigns horror when, out of the proverbial blue, I appear saying "Johnny, I have a great idea"... to which he replies, "Oh NOoooooooo".  I am grateful and blessed to have him in my life.
