My work is emotionally inspired and viscerally created to capture the essence of my message.  Constructed in concrete and premised on destruction as a vehicle for creation; my material and process are integral to the final image.  Using my custom mix of various cements, aggregates, pigment and other additives, I compose in every stage of development; modeling cement like clay, molding it like plaster and carving it like stone until honesty of content and craft are achieved.  When the concrete fractures and naturally defines a form, it changes from ordinary medium to an object with a life of its own.  This notion that human intervention gives life to an otherwise nonliving entity best describes my relationship with my material and my work.
