Artist Statement:
There is a certain type of
elegance to nature, and to all
living things. It’s almost
possible to find a meaning to
existence, to find God
himself, through the things
that He has created. Thus my
work could be considered an
homage, a tribute to the
things that I find to be
beautiful in this world.
I create my sculptures from
clay because of the
exceptional attributes of this
medium. Clay is an inviting,
earthy material; it’s also
quite durable. It’s perfectly
suited to figurative
sculptures because of the wide
range of emotion and movement
that can be captured. A
finished clay sculpture is
unique from other sculptures -
when you touch the surface,
your hand follows a path that
was not created by a tool, or
by machine, or transferred
from another medium; it’s the
exact paths and grooves that
the artist’s hands created....
