Artist Statement

I specialize in classically rendered sculptures of human figures, animals, and wildlife. Works include more than fifty public works of art for parks, colleges, liturgical settings, memorials, corporate headquarters, hospitals, and private residences. I have successfully worked in collaboration with architects and other professionals to implement large-scale designs and site developments. Venturing beyond the simple definition of sculpture as an object in space, an effort is made to incorporate or define the entire space that surrounds the central or peripheral sculpture being presented. This can be enhanced with a water feature, stone, metal, or other materials. All budgets are accommodated.
