Artist Statement: 

Most of my sculptures spring from a reverence for the natural world. The tree icons honor nature and encourage reflection. Other sculptures explore points of contact where humans appropriate ever more of nature into our service.

Welded steel is my favorite medium - through manipulation, the molten metal flows like lava and reveals its organic character. Sometimes I cast concrete in combination with the steel. Both of these materials possess a physical duality: they may appear quite rigid or very fluid, depending on how they are manipulated.
