All of the kinetic sculptures are made up of Copper, Brass, Aluminum, or Stainless Steel. The copper pieces are patinaed with either chemical or heat-induced rainbow of colors and sealed with a state-of-the-art exterior clear coating.
Many pieces are made of recycled materials . LaPaso spends hours digging in scrapyards, looking for just the right junk. "... then I have the wonderful experience of transforming them into something new."

I hope the work inspires the cultivation of?personal strength and resolve and encourages the observer to more easily know and follow their own path. Read More...
