Media

Glass, oil, stone, ceramics, mosaics, wood, acrylic, photography, metal & anything else I can get my hands on.

Specializing In Commissions

It has been commented that my specialty lies in designing unique works for individuals that bring out the very essence of their personality; joining the art with the client not simply creating it for them.

Goal

Artistically? I want to stir things up; when someone looks at a piece of my artwork I want something deep inside them to begin to move.

Philosophy

I cannot be philosophical about art, it is far too intrinsic to my very existence. "Its form was treated as something intrinsic, as the very essence of the thing." - John Dewey
