TRAINING
University of Washington School of Art -- Sculpture
PROFESSIONAL BACKGROUND
Twenty years as a graphic designer, art director, copywriter, and cinematographer. Full time sculptor since 1990.
THE MEDIUM
Welded armatures provide the framework upon which rise forms in steel, resin, and bronze; abstractions of the graceful, droll, often "quirky nature" of nature.
