After over 30 years as a metal sculptor,  I have turned my attention to creating artwork incorporating a wide variety of mixed media materials.  I have always been drawn to experimentation and exploration and I wanted to use a material that was versatile.

I have found that  simple everyday materials can be recycled and used to create a sophisticated piece of art.  Textures that are created by the material gives the viewer an art piece that is not only beautiful but draws them into the many and varied textures within.

I have found beauty in work that allows and even encourages imperfections by using materials that have been used exclusive of their original purpose.  The freedom from perfection allows an unwavering exploration of creativity.
