I have been creating artwork all my life, drawing inspiration from nature, primitive cultures, and the world around me.
All the pieces evolve and grow through an intuitive process. As the piece evolves, I respond to it as though it, itself were directing me. The piece becomes an adventure, a journey to the source .
