"SAFE HOUSE #1"
45.5 X 66.5 X 10"
After college, I entered the world of residential construction. That craftsmanship tradition of home-building is now part of my studio work.
A simple "House" icon may resonate with any viewer for various reasons. For me it is symbolic of that pivot-point in my creative arc."

"THINKING FOR YOURSELF #1"
31 X 42 X 5.5
"My creative efforts allow a visual dialogue with my audience.
I try to be respectful and serene with my CONSTRUCTS -perhaps even gracious to some degree.

"TIME PASSES - SO DO WE"
57 X 30 X 4
Q: "Are these pieces anachronistic or overly sentimental?"
A: "Inclusion of Found Forsaken Objects calls for a step back into its often-unknown and ambiguous past.

"A SECOND CHANCE #1"
48 X 60 X 5
"I believe my CONSTRUCTS give Forsaken Found Objects -and myself- a symbolic 'Second Chance'. Thus, my quiet inclusion of 'Pairings' and/or the number 'Two' in my compositions.
