About The Artwork
Cast resin pieces and painted...mounted on wood-stained base... The idea for this piece came from a PBS documentary on hippos…there was a place in the film where one of the hippos had died. The rest of the small group touched and said their good-byes and at the end, the hippos walked circles around their fallen comrade, as if to pay their respects. The herd, after several minutes, then slowly continued on their way…leaving behind their friend. I was so moved that this piece was made.

United States
Born in a town along the Ohio River in Ohio...from there, my family moved to Arizona...there started my love of powerful color and strong shapes. Back in Ohio, I continue my love of sculpture and the study of positive and negative space in nature. I have done pieces in Indiana limestone, paper mache’, and bronze. ARTIST’S STATEMENT... My work involves developing sculptural pieces that incorporate texture and organic masses. I strive to create shapes that have the power to move the viewer emotionally and visually. Living in a high-tech society such as ours...it is sometimes difficult for us as a peoples to maintain a spiritual connectiveness with our beginnings...working in sculpture gives me an opportunity to explore forms that have a relevance to our surroundings. Past cultures have contributed so much visually and spiritually...we must continue that journey.
