I am a sculptor by training and predilection. I make sculpture, I draw like a sculptor (3D images, not flat composition), make prints like a sculptor (process process process) and paint like a sculptor (it's all about material). I do a lot of architecture and furniture, which is just useful sculpture. Still, my work is not just sculpture - lots of painting, etching, drawing. At first blush it might seem like a lack of focus. Not so. All my work has the same hand, same taste, same treatment; only the formats vary.

I don't talk much about my work: my work speaks for me.

Pool

Pool, 38" high, hide over wood, with fiberglass and steel.    I love to paint.   It is odd how we grow:  I draw and make etchings almost daily, but these are always figurative, from life, with considerable realism.   I paint weekly, but these are always abstract, painterly, and formal, nearly content free.   I make furniture and architecture, always well crafted, and make sculpture which is defiantly never well crafted. Don't ask me why this is so.   It has puzzled me for many years.
