In 2011, at the age of 54, I built Northrock Studios at my home in Caddo Mills Texas and began to make art. In 2020 I left the construction business and devoted myself fulltime to art. Having spent the previous forty years in construction, it felt natural to adapt its materials and techniques into my art. I am not a formally trained or educated artist. While I have spent fifty years looking at and thinking about art, my abilities and skills in creating my pieces are firmly grounded in the utilitarian occupation of construction. When I built my studio and began making art I worked with the materials I was most familiar with: concrete, steel, glass, wood, etc. I particularly interested in working with concrete as the main structure of my pieces. I have made wall hung sculptures almost from the beginning. I wanted to combine the format of painting with depth and texture of sculpture. Initially I worked the exposed surface but I quickly flipped the process so that the finished surfaces would be created by the molds themselves. While the ingredients change from piece to piece, the basic format remains constant. It's a narrow path I'm exploring but one I am always finding new results on.
