"My love of sculpture began in my Dad's carpentry shop. Experiencing the beauty of wood and creating in this natural material eventually became prerequisite to carving stone. I've always been attracted to the artist who has the ability to make natural materials come alive with hammer and chisel. Uncovering what has always been inside is the challenge that moves me step-by-step to the ultimate purpose of evoking through sculpture an emotion or spirit that others can relate to."

"Although stone is my first love, I also enjoy sculpting in bronze, wood and terra cotta."
