My art is architectonic...but rooted in the abstract. Architecture has been my career for over twenty five years. It has given me the foundation to visualize and translate ideas to art...in sculptural form. Sketches and modeling help establish shapes, patterns and configurations that are bold, compatible and simplistic. I work with arched wood curvature forms overlaid with cement and plasters. My goal as an artist is to combine the clean, simple and complementary forms with a timeless and unpredictable material...cement. Concrete is unorthodox, modern, organic and stimulating to the senses...and couples well with my constructed designs.
