Bench Inspired by Bridges
Looking locally for inspiration, David drew his design ideas from the lift bridges on the Erie Canal, which runs right through Brockport. The finish on the bench is Arm-R-Seal and milk paint.

Artists give campus trees a new life
When some beautiful old trees were removed to make way for a community garden at SUNY Brockport, Professor Jason Dauenhauer reached out to the campus-wide Art Placement Committee, chaired by Professor Jennifer Hecker. Together, they got a grant to commission artists to turn lumber from the trees into benches, to be installed across the upstate New York campus. Some 20 artists submitted proposals for the benches, and seven benches were chosen. To see more on the project, check out Gallery: Campus trees get new life.
