Work for Sale

All the paintings I have available for purchase are here. Contact me if you are interested in commission work or want to know what ceramic work I have on hand. Thanks!

I just can’t resist the ongoing process of making pictures of objects. My visual arrangements play with a variety of symbolic and metaphorical elements. I am particularly interested in relative symbolic and metaphorical weight.

I have been developing a vernacular of object images, each of which elicits a visceral response in human beings.  We assign meaning, based on that response, to eggs, wishbones, sticks, feathers, stones, bones, nests, keys, and many items with which we have a singular personal relationship.
