Looking deep into the perfection of God’s creation, and our place in it.

Artwork

Sculpture

Wood Sculpture carved abstracted spaceship over an alien landscape

I love Iconic simplified themes that tell a story. My Sculptures combine woodturning, carving and combining different elements. I have collected exotic woods for 40 years, each one can be used like colors on a painter's palette.

Photography

Since I was very young I have loved landscape and nature photography, God has truly made a wonderous world! Check out this Gallery. I also like to have fun, Photography can be a very spontaneous Artform!

Drawing and Painting

In College I had 2 very influential professors, Paul Clervi impressed on me the importance of keeping one's drawings skills up and George Tutt, who instilled a love for Watercolor

I feel that when I create a work, I am trying to hold on to a perfect moment in time

Artist Statement

My love for simple pure form is always forefront in my thinking. I love iconic themes. Sculpture is my first love, but Cabinetmaking and Furniture making put food on the table throughout my career. I have always felt that Furniture is just functional sculpture. To me Sculpture, Photography, Drawing and Painting are intertwined. I learned photography to capture the glory that God has made and record the art that I love to create.
