My work derives from a stong background in human anatomy, and an ongoing study of organic form. I continually search for ideas from the natural environment, and am initially attracted to a figure visualized within an object. A shape within a shape is extracted both from its surroundings and its context, and is transformed by drawings and three dimensional imaging into a form with new meaning.  

I often weave a story into the installation of my public artwork because stories expand in their retelling and play a part in allowing the sculpture to become a focal point of its installation site.

I have completed a number of both public and private commissioned sculptural works. Requests for commissioning large-scale sculptural artwork based on a previous or new design and site specific inquiries are welcome.
