Each sculpture takes anywhere from 100 – 400 tires and up to a month to complete! Take a look at them below!

The muscle definition shown on each creation is beautiful - and the fact that you use 100% recycled tires makes your sculptures 100% eco-friendly!

Awesome! Jaguar should buy some of your jaguar statues in their shops :D It could totally work, for real

Really gorgeous work! I was a bit miffed at the Good Year guy saying "These are art works that WE have created..." He should have said commissioned! Nice of him to take credit for your work :/

Blake, your work is amazing! As a science teacher, it makes me so happy that artists like you are recognizing the need to use materials that need to be recycled. My father passed away leaving my family with about two large dumpsters full of tires from his garage in pa, we've been trying to keep them out of a landfill! If you or any other artist you know would be interested in these tires, please message me. We really want them to be repurposed. Thank you

These are really really nice! My favorites have to be the cougar,bear and bronco. And the muscle definition on all of them is really great! The different tire treads add that extra bit of texture, Amazing job!

These are so amazing. I have always admired people who can make something out of nothing and have the idea of how that something is gonna look like. Great sculptures. You should be proud and rich :)

you can actually make superhero costumes out of it...but how can someone protect the surfaces from bad weather conditions like rain, hot temperatures etc.
