Sculptor creates own business
By RHONDA HOLMAN
Whether it is doing a sculpture for the lawn of the state Capital or a new emblem for the campus Naval Reserve Officers School, the sculptor believes in finding his own opportunities.
"I don't wait for someone to come to me," he said yesterday. "If you are a designer and you want to use your creativity to do something, do it. Then things will start coming to you."
Boon's philosophy has brought him success as a designer and bronze-casting artist.
Boon, 33, is a design major whose work on a new JAWky emblem for the NROTC brought him requests from the Army and Air Force around as well.
projects-most of them on his own initiative.
BOON ALSO designed an emblem for the National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Association which was approved by both Congress and the president, he said. The idea for the emblem—a seagull suspended above a sea during a vacation at an East Coast beach.
"I was watching a seagull hang there in the air—not moving back or forth," he

said. "After five or ten minutes he just pulled in his wings and dove into the water. I realized that the bird had both the knowledge of the air and sea and I wanted to make something for a group of people such as the NOAA with the same knowledge."
Boon's present project is a status of a horse for Topeka West High School, where he labors.
Boon is looking at photographs and anatomy books for ideas on how to get the horse's muscles just right. He said he would go in and learn all about the horse's form by the end of the semester.
The horse began as a steel outline, was given a styrofoam body and slowly covered with wax to allow Boon to work on the animal's proportions.
BOON SAID he wanted to finish the horse and the campus military designs before he continued with his other two projects—a 44-foot sculpture for the state Capitol lawn and an emblem for the Lawrence City Offices Building.
State Seen. Ross Doyan, R-Concordia, is supporting the idea for Boon's sculpture for the Capitol lawn. The sculpture would look like a wheat and a double helix of DNA. Boon said.
Boon said the city emblem would represent how different racial groups in New York had been represented andraid to the present. He said City Manager Buford M. Watson and several city commissioners had seen the design and liked it. Boon said he was not sure how the project was being done.
Boon said he worked closely with the people he was designing for to ensure that the new product met their needs.
"To me, it is important whether your process includes working with the people your piece is for," he said. "That way, it can be more an emblem that they wanted."
BOON JUST spent $3,700 on a new welding device and estimates he owns $50 worth of hand tools. He said most bronze work cost about $1,200, but he did not wait to be paid before starting on a piece.
"I want to start my own founder and then I'll be able to do sculpture work in bronze for other businesses and other countries, even," he said.
Boon said he hoped to combine his knowledge of sculpture, design, physics and art with his experience as an educator.
He said his greatest reward came when he saw ROTC men on campus wearing shirts with the word "FREE."

Commentator backs equal rights amendment
Shana Alexander, a commentator for CBS "60 Minutes," called on women to stand up for equal rights in the working class yesterday in the Kansas University Ballroom.
Alexander's half-hour speech was punctuated by an aplause and nods of approval
from the audience of 500 people when she said women on the job should receive the training.
"You must demand equal pay with men," she said. "If you demand it today, you're more likely to get paid."
She praised Kansas as a leader in gran
ting equal rights to women because it was one of the first states to ratify the Gender Equality Act.
She also praised Sen. Nancy Kassebum,
IKan, for her aggressive role in the U.S.
council.
In a question-and-answer session after talk, Alex spoke about the recent U.S. immigration policy.
would allow a reporter's state of mind to be used as evidence of malice in a libel suit.
"I have more sympathy than most of my liberal journalistic friends in this issue," she said. "I don't think it will hinder journalistic practices that much."
