Artist Statement:
When I look at the world
around me, I see certain forms
and patterns that have a
strong pull on my imagination.
I feel compelled to capture

| Your Personal Biography |
I was born in Eugene, Oregon, and raised by the 2 incredible people I am lucky enough to call my parents. A high premium was placed on education and creativity when I was growing up. I have always drawn, painted, sculpted - tried to make some sort of tangible record of my experiences and impressions of the world around me. I received training in drawing and painting at the University of Oregon, under Professor Ron Graff and the late Professor Frank Okada, both renowned artists and educators. In the early 1990's, I transitioned to sculptural works as my main artistic output, focusing on direct welded steel work and found object assemblages.
I have so many ideas of work that I want to make that I will be busy until the day I die. |
