For the past ten years I have been designing and building unique metal creations ranging from the purely functional to the purely aesthetic. I enjoy the variety of my work. I may be making something as small as piece of jewelry one day, and then building a large outdoor sculpture the next. I have collaborated with several artists on public art projects and commissions, and have taught metals workshops at The Chapel Hill Museum School of Traditional Arts Crafts and Culture, and The Professional Arts and Crafts Program at Central Carolina Community College, as well as private instruction at my studio.
I enjoy making custom projects for my clients, and I sell finished works of art as well. I have a B.F. A. from East Carolina University and have attended multiple lectures and classes at the Penland School of Crafts and Peters Valley Craft Center. My work has been displayed at group exhibitions at The North Carolina Museum of Art, The Fayetteville Museum of Art, The Chapel Hill Museum, The Contemporary Art Museum in Raleigh, and The Green Hill Center for North Carolina Art.
As a craftsman my intention is to master material and technique. I have great admiration for tireless detail and the disciplined process of developing exceptional skill. As an artist I hope to take a closer look at a world that is much bigger than me, to connect with, and be thankful for a complex universe.
