About My Work
My work has always been abstract, although not always non-objective; I continue to feel that mimesis of the natural world should have a specific purpose to the image rather than the reason for the image. Regardless of medium, I tend to work in series, because I have found that as I make decisions regarding a piece there are always alternate decisions that are just as interesting. Each piece generates a half dozen others.
Usually I do not work from drawings or maquettes; however, most three-dimensional series have an accompanying two dimensional series. I begin from a vague notion that this part should go with that part and will look sort of like this, but I’m never certain until I have done it.
