Divine, intelligent nature is the foundation upon which we all rely.

Deep respect for the environment can shift our perspective and alter how we choose to exist within the natural systems that keep our planet in balance. Mindful approaches to our impact on nature can ensure the inspiring beauty and diversity of the natural world will thrive for generations to come.

Through direct wax modeling, ceramic construction and assemblage, I endeavor to inspire the viewer toward a more reverent perspective of and relationship to the natural world. Whether engaging with a raw, primal approach or a refined articulation of the animal as subject, I move the piece beyond mere description of the individual’s structure to something more mythic and iconic.

Deconstruction and fragmentation frequently appear in my work suggesting reason to consider the negative space that reflects the ethereal life within the subject.

With every animal or assemblage, I move beyond mere anatomy, capturing the thinking, feeling spirit that is worthy of our respect and protection and within whom our fate is intimately woven.
