Artist Statement

I like to sculpt relationships that remind one of special moments in their lives. I love to draw the viewer into that moment where one leaves with a feeling of nostalgia and joy. I like to capture those special moments of joy and happiness in my work, and I want the viewer to share that feeling with me.
