Artist's Statement
   

My work incorporates the forms and essences of the natural world. In observing the interplay of form and function found in the natural world, my goal is to create work that draws people to explore this dynamic interplay. I do not strive to duplicate, but to integrate elements of these organic forms into each one of my pieces. The medium of metal lends itself to developing these naturalistic forms with the durability and integrity afforded by hand wrought metal.
