Driftwood Charlie’s Contribution To The World
Monday, 18 February 2019
In 1947 the doctors said that Charles Kasling had only a short time to live unless he moved to a hot, dry climate. First he moved to the Death Valley area, and in 1960 he left for Yuma, Arizona, where Driftwood Charley’s World of Lost Art was created.”
Social Security records indicate Charles Kasling was born July 10, 1901 and passed away in March of 1985, a testament to desert living.
Unfortunately most of his artwork has been destroyed by vandalism and the elements.

Fallen Astronaut Memorial
Monday, 2 April 2018
Fallen Astronaut is an aluminum sculpture of an astronaut in a spacesuit which commemorates astronauts who died in the advancement of space exploration. It is currently at Hadley Rille on the Moon, having been placed there by the crew of Apollo 15.
It’s the only art installation on the moon. Fourteen names are listed on the memorial plaque, but three are missing. The deaths of two cosmonauts were unknown to the western world, and one astronaut was accidentally overlooked.

Sandy’s Can Cars
Wednesday, 28 February 2018
Many sources mis-attribute these sculptures to eccentric Australian Albert (Tapper) Torney, but they’re the work of New Zealander Sandy, who sells plans and displays finished models here.
His process is brilliant, meticulous and it’s pure awesome.
