ABOUT THE ARTIST
My previous career of 25 years in finance consisted of sitting at a desk, applying defined rules, and negotiating future actions. Creating art has become a necessity for me to find balance. It's an outlet for individuality, creativity, and the production of a tangible product.
ABOUT THE ART
I first turn the wood on a lathe and carve it into shape with chisels. Voids are created by hand using a high-speed dental drill. Black texture is added through stippling using a wire-tipped wood burner. In some cases, I'll add paint or metal leaf for additional color and character.
