Sculpture

Old growth redwood salvaged from beaches, and beams that held up a now-demolished railroad trestle for 100 years, are some of the materials I seek out for carved work. Although I take cues from such early American forms as the whirligig, I’m no historic preservationist: rocket scientists, falling rollerbladers, and other exotics of contemporary culture appear in my work. I did custom woodcarving for many years and I am open to considering commissions.
