Let’s open our eyes and look between the ripples of life. Stand still, take a deep breath and embrace that moment. The best moment of your life is every new breath.
The Art of Living…
I make art with everything. I have been asked in the past “what’s your medium” and my answer’s always “whatever I can get my hands on.” I work with aged metal, worn fabric to thick, old paint (one of my favorite items).
What I Like to Make:
Artistic furniture, paintings, fountains, garden art, large metal and wood abstract sculptures.
What Drives Me:
- Enjoyment: it is my meditation when I’m present with my creation.
- The upcycling of used goods: the earth has given enough to people, it’s time to give back to the earth.
- Family and friends: doing what I love to do gives me the opportunity to give the best of myself to the world.
