However, being a Navy Diver involved in the training of dolphins in the US Marine Mammal Program would temporarily take him in a different direction, which ultimately led to the US Capital as an officer in the Capital Police. Thus, in Washington, DC and now a husband and father of two sons, ERIK VINING re-discovered his artistic bent, quite literally. For without the assistance of a torch, vise or any tools, he creates original artistic sculpture. Using only his body and his bare hands, he bends steel bars into unique 'Hard Art,'believing that, "taking great time and care with every inch of each bar is essential, for the essence of each piece is in every bend of the bar." "I do not impose my will on the steel, but rather allow it to direct my body and hands to its new and final evolution." While it would be much easier to heat and bend a steel bar around a tree, the process used by ERIK VINING to create his 'Hard Art,' is as important as the final creation itself. "My process puts life into the steel," as The Reasonable Voice strives to put steel back into America's insistence on the Rule of Law, Honesty & Truth in our Government and a Rebirth of Freedom. So we proudly welcome Artist Erik Vining to the The Reasonable Voice Family of Patriots!

Years before packing a B.A. in Criminal Justice, future artist ERIK VINING was fascinated with the performing strongmen of old, who performed amazing feats of strength, including the bending of a long bar into an artistic creation.
The Reasonable Voice
Neither preacher, prophet nor politician am I, but beater of the drum, in celebration of the dreamers who dare to dream what was, and what we might become. One at a time the world we can change, if only we save ourselves from the manipulators of conflict and rage. Sailing onward, looking upward, always striding forward in constant pursuit of what we might be, on the next page. In service to the dreamers’ fulfillment of the dream, of those who dare to see what we can do to accomplish what we want to be. I'll aim to be the stone in your sling, whenever against the greed of Industry Goliaths you hurl, to save us all from an inhumane Corporate world. We all had dreams of grandeur once of how far we could go. Let us now recapture that essence and reignite our courage against the greedy foe. Now is always the greatest time to propel into action our best choices, so let us join together in transformation and raise our Reasonable Voices.
