After years of pastel portraiture, it seemed a natural progression to move to realistic figurative sculpture.
From the first time I worked the clay, I felt I had come home.
Still, to this day, I feel it’s way too much fun to be called work.

Initially, I create the piece in clay in my studio. Once complete, it is usually cut into pieces and transported to the foundry where the mold is made and the lost wax process commences, ending with a bronze casting.

An acquisition by Weyerhauser

This is a piece near and dear to me, as the models were family members.
