Process
A studio practice grounded in making, revising, and learning by doing.
Hardy's process reflects a contractor's discipline and an artist's curiosity. He experiments freely, but he also returns to structure, balance, and finish until the work feels resolved.
How the work is made
His years as a contractor and carpenter still guide the way he works. He builds tools when needed, revises compositions with discipline, and approaches every piece with the care of someone who has spent a lifetime making things that must last.
Built by hand and refined through repetition, each piece reflects Hardy's contractor's eye for structure and his artist's instinct for discovery.
Wall Clocks

Birdhouses

Glass Mosaic
Fragmented surfaces arranged with patience to create luminous, tactile images.
Spin Art
High-energy compositions where motion and color collide in surprising harmony.
Antler Art
Sculptural works that transform found form into a painted object with presence and character.
