These are sculptures I've created over the past several years. I take objects from my surroundings and transfigure them into industrial/organic implements that are slightly abstract in not being easily reconizable, Influences would include areas where I have lived and worked.  These forms refer to the industrial object as a vestige of  my physical environment.    More importantly these sculptures refer to utilitarian objects. Implements of work. Work as craft and craft as work. The process of making conceptually becomes part of the work. This is literal and figurative. Literal in my process of creating (as in multiples) and figurative ( as in form).  Many of these objects have been further transformed through subtle anatomical references as seen in their curvilinear forms and literal appendages. The Hand image and implied utilitarian motifs refer to concepts of this hand in work. They have become subverted in meaning and form as contemporary sculptures,  

Ceramic sculptures created in the past few years. Source inspiration comes from the physical environment around me. I reconfigure objects into hybrid forms that come from the human created world and transform them into organic/industrial shapes with references to the human form.

Recent sculptures and images of past exhibitions overviews.

These are Raku-fired ceramic sculptures with a nautical, life-preserver theme.

This is a new series of abstract paintings. I decided to make a pivot from my more well known work in ceramics to take time to explore new ideas and techniques I've been thinking of to abstract painting. They are heavily textured with a stalactite like surface. They elude to natural and constructed elements in nature.

These paintings are created during the process of creating the Abstract Painting series.
