Welcome!
Hi, welcome to my website!

I am a Denver sculptor, creating lifesize, mixed media, original animal sculpture in a medium I call Neo Cartonnage, after the ancient Egyptian materials used to create sacred objects, including wood, paper mache, glue and linen. I am a visionary artist whose art deals in the natural world-symbolic, realistic, and mythological. The human connection with it takes many forms, from playful to political to profound.

I am fascinated by this connection, and explore it with my work, in particular with dogs of all breeds, from Collies to Chinese Cresteds. My colorful and whimsical, free-standing and wall hung art works are both surreal and mysterious, both representative and metaphoric. Wildlife and horses, lifelike in an interior setting, are magical.

I frequently incorporate found objects, including Volkswagen doors. Just by nature, my work is constantly changing. I will update new images regularly. Enjoy your visit and please return again.
