arctic whale Sculpture

I make pictures of situations that I want to think about and look at. My pictures have carved wood figures with wire appendages that are mounted over drawings on paper. I am inspired by the natural history museum dioramas and display cases I spent time in front of in my early years and that I continue to find and absorb. My figures are people-animal-shape configurations, and the drawings have landscape elements with plant shapes added in to charm my wife.
