Sculpture and Mixed Media

 

I have been sculpting for several years and love the medium.  With imagination, and heightened awareness of positive and negative space, all sculptures can be created!

 

My Educational background

  •  Garland College - Boston,Mass  (art major)
  •  Hofstra University - Mineola, NY (mixed media and sculpture)

I am an architectural design professional, and have remodeled many homes that had the "bones" and light exposure that I find uplifting.

 

For many years I have sculpted portrait heads, many of which were commissioned by families, for a lasting image of loved ones.

 

Lately, I have concentrated on Bas-relief, which gives me a chance to tell a story, be it Greek Mythology or folklore.  I work in clay, and have molds made to later caste my work in bronze.

 

My works are displayed in many celebrities homes in the LA area, and in European countries with commissioned work.

 

I have studied with Bruno and Paul Luchessi, Eugene Daub, Miriam Baker, Alan Soberson and Rhonda Jones, and have recently been commissioned to do the Great Seal of the State of California.

 

My motto: Carpe diem – seize the day!
