James
"Buddy" Snipes
Buddy Snipes is
the youngest of a family of twelve children, born and raised in
rural Alabama. He has worked odd jobs all his life, and has an
inherent talent for fixing things and working with his hands.
For the past decade he has constructed assemblages from all kinds
of salvaged materials, wood, metal and bone, whatever material
tickles his fancy to depict stories from the world as he has experienced
it. His works of art, which are becoming increasingly collectible,
are rough, colorful and always come with a story.
