This is the curated entry point to Buck Dodds archives. If you want a sense of what Buck does, start here. This best represents my range of work.
Steven David Powell of Great Falls, Montana assumed the pseudonym, Buck Dodds, as an internet avatar and business name in 2026. Any signed work, film credits, published work, or patent and design awards attributed to Powell with a stylized bison head in the signature, SD, Steven D., Coyotemon, S David or Saul Q. Good; are genuinely works of Buck Dodds from his “Signature” period.
All unsigned, unsold or otherwise unattributed works by Powell are the exclusive property of Buck Dodds, Llc.

Having adopted “Buck Dodds” for its unique entendre and previously unused internet qualities in January, 2026, Powell kept the moniker because he’s bucked a lot of odds. “Buck Dodds” reflects Powell’s Montana roots, literary voice, and the unique personality of a polymath artist born in the heart of the “West.” His genre is decidedly not western and self-dubbed, “anti-cowboy.”
“Think, anti-hero, here because I never met a cowboy I didn’t admire. They’re the salt of the earth.” – Buck Dodds
Abel: Cane killed Abel. But I, you, and anybody is “ABLE” to kill the sugar “cane” that killed this Abel. Buck lost 40 pounds after he painted this and mounted it in his living room. It’s not for sale, but signed prints are. Or comission me for your self-portraitized “Able.” Watch the pounds come off effortlessly.
Candied Rat 2012. The goal was a hard-candy sculpture of a rat. The result was the rapid deterioration of a body filled with sugar.
The next iteration from that rat mold will be made of wax and displayed under a heat lamp. It will likely be untitled, and last about an hour.
BUGGERED by Buck Dodds was a winner in the 2023 Writer’s Advice flash fiction contest. He illustrated it too. Click here to read it.
Gurney 2013. This sculpture, made of foam core, cannot stand up on its own legs without collapsing, like for-profit healing as a business model.
As I researched my food and discovered it was being genetically modified to grow in glyphosated soil. I discovered our bodies were essentially processing glyphosate (brand name Roundup) and our “leaky” guts were pooping it out. (citation to come). GMOh-shit!
The mad scientist from the 1960s cartoon series Underdog, Simon Bar-Sinister, would wring his hands and get googley-eyed as he tried to “rule the world!” In this 21st Century portrayal, He works for Monsanto, and his secret weapon is GMO corn.
This is just the tip of the iceberg. As Buck mines his archives, he’ll be adding more content. Subscribe for updates.
