"My work is a direct reflection of my involvement with and respect for the physicality and spirituality associated with the creative process. This process involves using my skills to produce a physical manifestation of things conceived in the mind's eye, which I release into the realm of tangible form. The warmth and life force of wood lends itself to the creation of works that are aesthetically pleasing and alive in their intimacy with the viewer."
