GROUDAS ART Inc. & Farmiture™ is a collection of unique, one of a kind welded steel Sculpture, Lighting & Farmiture™. All of our works are created from salvaged steel that has been hand selected from all across New York State. Our original designs are inspired from rusty old car parts, vintage farm machinery, old bicycles, gears, antique lumber, barn wood and interesting industrial age objects. Each piece of salvaged steel we use in our sculptures and home furnishings has a story behind it. Nancy and I married in the summer of 1997 and we have been creating art ever since. Our latest endeavor is working with welded steel. We have always been “pickers” of unique found objects, intrigued about the history of each piece of old steel we find. We seek objects that once were proudly well made in the USA, strong and solid. The aged patina of the steel we unearth and recover stimulates us artistically. Many are works of art unto themselves. Our mission is to reclaim these steel objects, then blend and incorporate them into our Sculpture, Lighting, and Farmiture™ Instagram- @Farmiture Facebook- Farmiture http://www.groudasart.com/ Show Sponsor: https://agiledragonconsulting.com/ Show Sponsor: https://terranut.com/bhp Support the show!

Robert “RJ” Harper is a PADI-certified scuba diver, model and environmental ambassador with Earth Justice, one of America’s leading environmental justice law firms. Harper embraces Earth Justice’s mission “Because the Earth Needs A Lawyer” and had been a vocal ocean advocate. RJ openly celebrates some of the recent successful beach and ocean cleanups and is slated to Dive with Dixie Divers and PADI on June 15 @ Deerfield Beach, Florida as a Team Leader in “The Largest Underwater Cleanup in the History of World” hoping to set an inspiring Guinness World Record that will be repeatedly broken each year going forward. “I’m very happy to be part of the leadership of this tremendous ocean cleanup by Mr. Arilton Pavan working closely with PADI, Dixie Divers, AquaLung and other committed sponsors to bring global awareness about the devastating things mankind is doing to our delicate oceans.” Harper has appeared on international magazine covers such as Global Man and has appeared in numerous scuba marketing campaigns for major aquatic brands and hopes to build a lasting legacy that ultimately encourages more young people of color to learn swim and embrace aquatic sports. “Every day in America, ten people drown and of those ten, six of them are always persons of color. As PADI divers, I think we all have a broader responsibility in America to help reduce those terrible statistics in the near future by encouraging all people to embrace aquatics early in life because, on some level, all scuba divers are ocean advocates by default.”

Jim’s write up in the Li Herald abridged: Jim Loughran walked down a dim hallway, flanked with video monitors depicting simulated sharks swimming in crystal blue waters, at Sony Pictures Studios in Culver City, Calif. As he made his way a little further, crew members told him where to stand. Loughran then hit his mark and faced the real sharks — self-made entrepreneurs who double as filthy-rich investors and reality television stars. The Island Park resident, 57, who turned his backyard into a synthetic ice rink, has morphed the design into a full-fledged business, and entered ‘the Tank’ earlier this year to pitch his company to the investor sharks. Loughran spent years in the construction business as a project manager, and always carried a passion for hockey. He taught his son, Brian, now 22, to skate at a young age, and coached him in his youth, but as he tried to create a place for him to practice outdoors in the winter, mild temperatures often spoiled the fun. “Every year, I would build a little ice rink in the backyard,” Loughran said. “I would flood it, and then I would pray for cold weather. If I was lucky, maybe I’d get three weeks out of it.” Loughran’s company, Home Ice Supplies, focuses on bringing synthetic ice, made of polymer plastics, to families at an affordable price. The company offers different sized panels that interlock together to ensure a tight, nearly seamless connection that simulates skating on real ice. With the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity came pressure, and Loughran began meticulously preparing for the pitch by watching many episodes in the months leading up to it. He said he learned from previous entrepreneurs the dos and don’ts when eye-to-eye with the investors. “It’s like a huge infomercial,” Loughran said. “You’re really putting yourself out there, but if you don’t do it right, it could be a bad-fomercial. You try to present yourself and the product the best you can.” “There’s a lot that can be done; there’s room for growth, and definitely there’s the interest because people love to skate,” Loughran said. “There are some exciting things that I have now and I have some really exciting things planned for the future. It’s going to be something that no one’s ever seen before.” Jim's Website: https://www.polyglidesyntheticice.com/ Show Sponsor: https://elisemargolin.zenfolio.com Show Sponsor: https://agiledragonconsulting.com/ Support the show!
