Kicking butt on the land - I was thinking of early settlers when I made this piece. Modern hammers, old fashioned gentleman ways of bringing flowers home to his lady. Appreciation on both sides.

But how is this piece then seen in today's light? As a feminist whack at males? Do our thoughts go to the "pretty in pink, or even the floral patterns "mini" tools sold by hardware stores".

Where's an 8 foot stud when you need one?
