Artist Statement:
I experiment with all kinds of mediums, as in paintings to concrete sculpturs. The work that I do create, come from all emotions of life. From current issues, abstract expressions to functional objects. In most of my work I try to make a lasting empression. I enjoy receiving a positive or negative reaction from the general public. The art work on this site will change often, please check back for updated art work. Most all of my work is for sale, if interested please contact me....

| Biggest Artistic Inspiration |
I would say my artistic inspiration would be one of my old professors at college Ruben. He inspired me to keep creating art and not to give up no matter what people would say. If it makes me happy thats all that matters. |

| Why Did You Become An Artist |
I love how you can openly express yourself. Expose people which have blinders on to a diffrent form of art, none cookie cutter art...art that makes you think...open minded art. |

| Your Personal Biography |
I was born and raised in an aricultural town in Eastern Washington State (Pomeroy Washington). I graduated from Pomeroy Jr. Sr. High School and attended Eastern Washington University, where I acquired my BFA Degree in Mixed Media Sculpture. Growing up near the Blue Mountains, I spent most of my time playing and working outdoors, which gave me an appreciation for the things around me. Most of my sculptural work is constructed with natural materials, which are extracted from the earth as in sand, dirt, natural fibers and pigments. The forms I create imitate elements of the earth's bounty and the relationship to the formation of the planet itself. Hanging, crawling, twisting and intertwining with each other, this identifies the inherent beauty and fragility of nature. This is just one part of my art, I work in just about every media from painting to glass, plaster to concrete you just about name it I have probably worked with it.
