My media of choice are stone, forged and welded steel and wood but porcelain, glass, brass and bronze have found their way in from time to time. I'm inspired by natural science with an injection of humor and contradiction. Inspiration, however, comes from a variety of sources; the trials of life, the shape of a stone, and the work of giants like da Vinci, Calder, Giacometti, Gabo, Hepworth, Noguchi, and Moore. There is also much fertile ground in myth and dogma. I see my work as a catalyst to understand, and a lens to clarify, my place in the world.
