My work is a study in life. As a young person raising a family I would create the sculpture of the moment at the beach in the sand with nothing more than a kitchen spoon, knife,my hands, and a yearning in my heart. Buy days end the waves would wash away any evidence of creative endeavor at this place on this day. I discovered clay as a life affirming substance to bring to life the persons who have passed through my life and my imagination. At times I have to endure endless health issues and unrelenting physical pain, where I find escape and relief in my art. I truly do thank God for granting me the ability to express myself and share my imagination.
