“I have dedicated my life to Art since I was a young man, and have worked incredibly hard over decades to develop my understanding of form in relation to the concept/subject matter. This has enabled me to achieve the mature level of thought-provoking, expressive, creative and artistic works that I have produced over the past years. I work primarily in wood, using the deconstruction process of carving to explore the infinite possibilities of form within the block, and immensely enjoy the versatility of this dense organic medium. All of my works are cast in bronze metal, which offer the permanence of a medium that can be experienced and treasured for generations to come”.
