In 1983, my mother introduced me to stone carving. I quickly learned the medium wasn’t for me—too much noise, dust, and the physical demands of maneuvering 200–400 lb blocks of marble, slate, and onyx around my filthy garage. Still, the experience added depth to my understanding of form and material.

During 20 years of European travel, I found myself pulled into every major museum I passed. Sculpture began to move to the forefront of my appreciation, and I developed a strong affinity for antiques and surrealism.

For the past ten years, I’ve focused almost exclusively on sculptural mixed-media artworks—creating surreal, layered assemblages with dolls, mannequins, skulls, fabric, found objects, and raw emotion. This is where my creativity feels most alive—strange, intentional, and unfiltered.

Included on this website you’ll find photography and jewelry, as they describe what I do in my spare time. When I’m not creating something of my own, I’m also on the hunt to work in a collaborative effort with other artist friends.

How I Work in My Studio

For the most part, I work alone- having learned to be comfortable without much conversation- in the absence of such distraction and feeling a forced need to respond; I’m inspired to create new friends and acquaintances that I believe appreciate my silence. 

However, they do communicate and share vague convivialities when exhibited to strangers. 

(Example: Roller Derby)

Seriously though, I’m happy working alone outside the range of helpful critics, until the piece is done. 

In the end, the artwork speaks for itself.
