Artist Statement:
I am always looking, looking for creative use of materials, looking for how art can help build community, looking to elicit a smile, an ahhh moment, a time to look at something in a fresh way, like driving down a path always followed and all of a sudden realizing there is another path, or that you have missed something on that daily travelled path, finding deeper meaning, like peeling the skins of an onion back, getting to know things for more than the surface or first impression. My next goal is to do a series on water and how we can learn from it in relation to human relationships, how does water flow and why? What does it do when it runs against something in its path? Can it change the things it runs against over time or is it best to go around them?
