Sculpture: Archetypal Characters and Situations

These figures begin as questions: What if? What else? Why not? Dozens of pencil and watercolor sketches move me closer to the underlying archetype. When a unique character emerges I move into three dimensions. Wire armatures become line drawings in space — arms, legs, hands, and heads continuously repositioned until the gesture tells the story.

Color and surface come last, projecting personality and meaning. Bold palette, complex texture, dynamic form. Original sculptures are built with mixed media on carved marble bases. (See more info on materials.) Works range from intimate tabletop scale to large outdoor pieces. Most figures are genderless, culturally neutral, and uniquely original.

These are archetypal metaphors — characters and situations that live in all of us. They are not illustrations of ideas. They are invitations to look a little deeper. All works are available for purchase as originals. Commissions are welcome. Studio visits by appointment.
