Artist Statement |
|
| For one reason or another when I awake each
day day of my life I feel compelled to create. My work is usually
derived from a vision in my head. The pieces that I create are
three-dimensional versions of these visions. My construction process
consists of two major elements. One element is loose and free flowing.
The other is tight and technical. The end result is an aesthetic,
functional piece that is a reflection of who I am and what I once
envisioned in my head.
As you look at a piece that I have created, you should be drawn to the flowing lines of the form and the unique design. As you examine the construction. the level of craftsmanship will impress you. Looking closer, you will see that every detail is well thought out exquisitely executed. I strive to create pieces that will add beauty to home's interior. Creating custom furniture that a client has searched for or dreamed of is the ultimate gift of my craft.
