Amos Hemsley has been a professional sculptor in the industry for over 9 years and has been a life-long geek. It was growing up with comic books that lead him to his professional and artistic career.

Q: Why Rosie?

 A: My inspiration for this piece came from my love of movies, before learning
of this event I recently watched movies like the matrix and i-robot. I kept seeing robots turning evil and I thought it would be nice to see one
of their heads on my wall in a post apocalyptic fashion. this was my
attempt at getting back at Skynet. This eventually inspired me to make a
robot but I wanted to put a retro twist on it. So I started thinking about robots from my childhood and eventually came to pick Rosie from the
Jetsons. And it eventually just grew from there.

 A: I am currently in the process of working on a piece call Aba Alexander

Q: What was your inspiration for your piece?

A; My work is inspired by Native indian's Dream catcher and Wall hang mirror. I wanted to mix those items inside of the Wood Frame Box.
This time I tried to use natural wood,Leather,Fur to make an item likely to be in a hunter's unique trophy room. 
And I wanted to assist to make great space of hunter's safe house room.
