Artist's Statement
Art has always been my passion ever
since childhood. Life's many journeys have given me inspiration for
much of my subject matter. My exploration of the human story-
both physically and spiritually, has inspired themes expressed throughout my work.
Over the years, I pursued my art
In many ways,through photography,
drawing, painting, woodcarving, and
design. In my early twenties, I decided to travel throughout Europe, and Scandinavia, exploring world of art.
And viewing the works of the masters.
Upon my return home, I became
passioned to begin sculpture!
A few years later, I received a
commission to do "The Last Supper"
Three years ago, my Son, Scott,
an accomplished artist, and myself, began working together to create a series of niches, several of which have
either been sold, placed in parks, or
other public places, on lease!
I love working with nature as my subject matter. The human figure
fascinates me, both abstract, and
realistic. I believe that our art should
Make a statement, speak out against
violence,oppression, hunger, hatred,
environmental destruction, abuse, etc. It's up to us!
