Patricia Cornwell's New Belt Buckle, Titled: Lucy

Winston has finished a custom handmade buckle for the famous author Patricia Cornwell. The carving is based on one of the characters "Lucy Farinelli" in her new novel Flesh and Blood. The carving simply titled Lucy was finished and sent to Patricia in November of 2014. Below are images of Patricia wearing the buckle surrounded by friends as well as a close up of the beautiful handmade buckle made by Winston.

Why Lucy? In the her new novel Flesh and Blood Scarpetta investigates a shipwreck, looking for answers that only she can discover and analyze. And it is there that she comes face to face with shocking evidence that implicates her techno genius niece, Lucy, Scarpetta’s own flesh and blood.

Winston Visits Cooperstown

Winston visited Arizona in December of 2014 and wanted to show his new buckle to Alice Cooper the owner of Cooperstown. Unfortunately Alice wasn't at the restaurant at the time of Winston's arrival. However the staff and our waitress Alisha was very kind and intrigued at the newly made belt buckle. Here are some images of Winston showing off his handmade buckle at Cooperstown in downtown Phoenix, Arizona.

The food, drinks and service was great. Winston recommends a visit to Alice Cooperstown if you're in the neighborhood. Located next to Talking Stick Resort Arena in Downtown Phoenix.

Most recently Winston had one of his handmade Belt Buckles gone missing

This is not the first time this has happened to the artist Winston. It’s actually happened to him twice over the past 6 years. He most recently had one of his Original Pirate Head Buckles gone missing from the courier (a local UPS drop off / P.O. Box facility in Las Vegas) Unfortunately Winston only had $500 of insurance from UPS and to top that off he will have to re-carve the buckle again so he can get it to his customer who special ordered it.

Title: Jack The Pirate 

Why does this matter? Well, first of all Winston recently celebrated his 67th birthday in October of 2014. Nevertheless he's popular, his carvings are in demand and he's backed up with custom orders to fill. The lost buckle slows down his production time and makes it hard for him to fill his seasonal orders to retailers such as J.W. Cooper in Bal Harbour, FL

The missing buckle is numbered and signed by Winston with an inscription etched into the backside of the silver and gold buckle. Winston said " If this carving is ever found it would be a miracle. I wonder how many years after my death it will take for that buckle to resurface" Then he chuckled his usual lighthearted laughter and said "Love you son, I got to go.. Times a wastin!"
