What Makes Me Tick
My Artistic Drive
Being a self taught sculptor and having decades of life of experiences, together has given me the freedom to create with no rules. I don't see "normals", I see figuratively abstract people and things around me.
I feel art should elicit emotion. Good or bad, if a piece of art I create causes the viewer to pause and mentally engage, then I have succeed in reaching them.
I strongly feel community HAS to be a part of public art. I weave them into whatever phase of fabrication when possible and that empowers me.
Creating Art
I have two very different processes for creating art. For big installations I obviously have to have some thought regarding the structure. I'm creating a base armature (skeleton) out of rebar. There will be areas that need extra fabrication, etc. So I really need "a plan" for creating.
In contrast when I work with stone or marble plaster block - I seldom have an idea what the end piece will be. I just start carving and at some point my brain will take over and guide my hands as to what I need to do for that finished sculpture. Its truly the best of both creative worlds.
My Art Portfolio
As you'll see, I'm all over the board with designs and creations. I swear when my mind takes off on a project it's hard to reel it in AND what comes out as the finished piece makes me shake my head at times thinking- wow, that was in there.
But that's the rewarding (sometimes surprising) beauty of my art.
