Artist's Statement
My art celebrates those ancient symbols of humankind that expresses our sense of the universe and our place in it: our environment, history, and cultures. It also celebrates today culture and dreams. Early anthropological studies combined with a passion for "Primitive Art," form the bedrock of my art making. I find the use of mosaic and glass materials to be the most natural media in reflecting man's visions and today's environment.
For example:
IBROCKING recalls the spirit of a northwest coastal Indian and Pot Latch into modern times.
TWILIGHT TIME brings together the sacred turtle and snake in a peaceful context.
DREAMS OF FUTURE PAST celebrates the 1950’s imagery of space exploration.
I want to share my love of our ancient sensibilities and modern dreams with others.
