Artist Statement:
My drawings were important and
numerous from the beginning of
my furniture building career.
Over time they evolved into a
flamboyance and reverence for
color. Now as I design and
build, I try to remain as true
to the drawings as I can so
that the spontaneity and
freshness will be carried into
the furniture, giving the same
intrinsic quality of the
drawing to the work. My
challenge has become to carry
the ethereal quality of the
drawings into solid wood
forms.
Other interests are combining
ideas with visual and tactile
experiences as in, "Coming In,
Going Out, Going In, Coming
Out." This piece moves
visually and materially from
the forest to the chair and
back again.
More recently I have been
focused on a series of pastel
drawings that are generating
pieces that include graffitti,
color and images that add new
aspects to furniture as
art....
