Artist Statement

"Each of my sculptures are a reincarnation of many purposeful past lives. My approach

in creating public art is to invite the viewer to reflect upon what we consider discards

and to perhaps be more thoughtful about personal reuse.


My work with found objects as a sculptor is the same as my work with clients as a

licensed clinical professional counselor. Just because something or someone has been

used, discarded, abandoned or rejected does not mean that there is no longer any

potential or value. Often what is needed for recovery is a little time and attention to

construct a new perspective so that a renewal may emerge. This is my life's work with

objects and with humans.


My goal is to continue this experience until I have no breath left."


The Psychiatrist Is In Statement

As a counselor for over 30 years I felt a self portrait was in order. Clearly my head has gotten a little big from the collection of so many stories, but go ahead and have a seat, there is always room for more.
