A Symbol of Form and Function

I’m pleased that my work gained some unexpected coverage once again. Rob and Sandy fell in love with a piece they insisted was perfect for their new, soon-to-be completed weekend retreat. Shortly after the purchase there was talk of a possible feature article of their property that my work would help to decorate.

A beautiful 4-page spread on the owners’ refuge did in fact appear in the March issue of Nashville Home and Garden. The home, a combination of modern and rustic, the likes of which you might see on the pages of Dwell magazine, blends the couple’s styles.

I love the way the owners chose to position my stainless steel Ball Tower sculpture in the garden area just across from the stone fire pit and visible from the outdoor dining space. It’s an honor for my work to be featured in such a beautiful space built and filled with carefully chosen details and objects. The piece along with other exterior design elements helps to connect the building to the property and, I believe, set the tone for the stunning interior of the home.

Enjoy your sculpture and your sanctuary, Rob and Sandy.

First Blog

Hey Everyone. Hope you have been able to check out my newly updated web site and welcome to my first (of many, hopefully) blog. A lot has been happening.

I’m happy to say, and thanks to many of you, that I’m wrapping up my best year to date. My work continues to expand as I’m becoming fascinated with fresh designs as well as new technology that’s making these innovative, complex designs possible. I’m excited about my newest piece, Easter Island Head (see photo) that is created by complex metal folding. It has created quite a buzz and I’ve already received two commissions.

I have my Florida shows coming up in January - March. I’m excited that the whole family will once again join me for part of the trip.

I’m happy to announce that I’ve gotten approval from two cities for large scale solo exhibitions for the summer of ‘09. I’m excited to further my career with these events that feature twenty 8-foot dogs with a new design. These dogs are limited edition and numbered. We are currently working to sign on two additional cities. I hope to expand from being solely a gallery represented artist to a large-scale exhibition caliber artist. Stay tuned… this could be exciting.
