About the Artist

I have been creating asemblages with found objects and industrial artifacts for the past twenty years. I try to combine the colors, shapes, and textures of materials in such a way that we can perceive their inherent beauty without being distracted by any cultural predispositions that we may have acquired about the objects themselves. My studio is high on a hill in Fairfax, California. You can reach me at (415) 721-7501.

My piece "Midnight at the Cubist Garage" was selected for the annual Cloverdale (Calif.) Sculpture Exhibit, from June 4 through September 30, 2005. I have also had one-man shows at Gallery Route One in Point Reyes Station in September-October 2005 and March-April 2007.

Over the years, I have contributed pieces such as One-string Totem (2002) to be auctioned off during the annual Ritter House Art With A Heart art exhibition and auction. Monkish Door sold there in 2003, as did Composition in Blue and Brown in 2004.


I have not included my whole exhibition list here, but these local shows are representative of the venues in which I display. You can view my most recent work, along with descriptions of the venues in which they have appeared, by clicking the Slides button and proceeding to the last pages.

A note about permanence

Since pieces that remain with me are likely to evolve, and to have their constituent parts incorporated into new assemblages, I can't guarantee that a piece that you like won't continue changing after it has been taken down from a show. Many don't, but a significant number do. Please let me know if you're particularly struck by a specific piece, and I'll do my best not to touch it for awhile.


Thanks --
