ARTIST STATEMENT
I work mostly in wood because it is a living material that is as vital now as it was in antiquity. It is a material that has its own energies and forces and helps the sculptures take on a life of their own. My work has evolved over time, using scale and geometry, seeking a point where myth, history and nature coalesce.
