To obtain a Millermatic 252 GMAW (MIG) -200(208)/230V welder from Praxair in Duluth, MN. The outcomes after purchasing this welder is for me to reach a point of consistent skillful ability with MIG welding and to have reliable working equipment available to me for future residencies or fellowships that I am applying for in the next couple months including the Anderson Center Residency at Tower View in Red Wing, MN. This welder will make it possible for me to practice and improve on my new welding skills acquired in the 8-week Penland fabrication class and the welding class I recently took at Cook County Higher Education in Grand Marais with Don Hammer. With this welder I will be able to continue working on my small scale sculptural body of work at home in my own shop. As my skills increase, I will be able to increase the scale of these sculptures overtime with the various capabilities this welder has to offer. The new work I produce will allow new artist opportunities which I will be able to apply for with the new work I create using this piece of equipment. The main short term measurable outcome will be to finish five more small insect sculptures for a possible juried show coming up this summer at ArtReach St. Croix (Stillwater, MN).
