There is no record of the first human to “discover” the planet Mars because it’s been prominent in the night sky since the dawn of time.     It was first known as “Ares” by the Greeks, named for their god of war, then later renamed “Mars” by the Romans for their god of war.

The stone comes from dry arid areas in Utah very similar to the conditions on the planet Mars.  The piece is mounted on a granite ring selected for the coloration whic complements the rhyolite sculpture

My favorite creations are defined by balance and negative space. Opening a stone to see inside, exposing a surface that's been hidden since the beginning of time, revealing a hidden view of the universe, are the things that excite me. I share my excitement by carving the stone into an asbstract shape that balances delicately at an impossible angle to force the viewer to reexamine their assumptions about the physical world.
