About The Artwork

This handstand came out of some studies made when I was working with a troupe of circus acrobats in rehearsal. After their more formal training session, they were playing with handstands, exploring the possibilities with the movement. One sketch made from that session lead to this piece. When making this piece, I wanted to capture the sense of movement that I had seen with the acrobats and the loose quality of a sketch. Bronze has the flexibility of character to capture these qualities. Each piece changes and adapts to the environment in which it lives.

My work explores the world that I see, the things, objects, and people in that world. The newest pieces blend my landscapes together with my early interest in the human figure. I’ve always sought to emulate nature, not to reproduce it as a camera would, but to understand the how and what of the image in front of me. I believe Thurber was correct when he suggested that the noblest study of mankind is Man (the species, not the gender). The closest a painter may come to this study is surely the human being. Where people are not available to the artist, then the landscapes that formed them must stand as model.
