"My art, for most of my life, was expressed through book writing and book publishing. The companies we founded consistently won major awards for both the content and the design of our products. Ten years ago my wife gifted me with a trip to the Marble/marble stone carving symposium in Colorado. Since then I have retired from book publishing and shifted media, spending much of my time sculpting stone at my Placitas studio.

Most of my work depicts positive emotions and loving relationships - liberty, contemplation, joy, play, love, commitment, and birth. Someone asked me why I don’t do rage or jealousy. Why? Because it’s no fun for me to spend a month with those emotions. Perhaps due to my verbal background, I most enjoy creating sculpture that tells stories and celebrates major life transitions. These spiritual/relational pieces are usually accompanied by a narrative poem.

I create my sculptures as personal spiritual expressions and therefore normally do not make them available to the public. While I have exhibited my work in several venues over the years, The Placitas Artist Series will be the first format in which I will choose to place any of my work for sale."
