"I am driven . . .

For me, sculpture is more than a vocation -- it is a passion which must be satiated; and yet, that point of satisfaction is never achieved. I am compelled to pursue the variations of figurative sculpture and to seek a level of realism so exquisite that it almost draws breath. It is my sincere intention in the figures that I create to strip them of their pretensions, their protective personae, and to replace this clutter with a reflection of the essential truth about the human condition. Further inspiration and definition comes from abstraction, form and finish -- to enhance its artistic pulp.

My primary medium of choice is clay, which is at once both living and forgiving -- and which allows me to capture the subtleties of motion and emotion. Ever the adventurer, however, I will also respectfully explore all mediums -- any fabric of man or nature which will allow itself to be reshaped to my bidding.
