"Green" eco-friendly assemblage art awards custom made from recycled and vintage artifacts, tools and materials to recognize the recipients for their outstanding service and influence.
With great honor I was given the opportunity to create the last award for Millard Fuller, world humanitarian and co-founder of Habitat for Humanity.  He passed away while I was creating
the award for him just days before he would have received it.  Millard didn't see the award, but knew I was making it for him and got to see photos of some of the tools.  With sadness
and purpose I finished his award, which was given to his wife Linda who was equally as deserving.  This experience had profound meaning for me that I am yet to fully realize.
