Stone
Carving stone is a challenging and often times frustrating process but when it comes out right it is one of the most rewarding materials to work with. When I work with stone I spend time with the raw stone, studying the color, form and size and sometimes laminating multiple small pieces together before I begin to develop an idea for the final sculpture. Often I start with a basic idea that is developed as I get deeper into the carving. This allows for flexibility and surprises along the way.
SMALL WORKS
The following stones are part of my small works project. I am working to create a body of work that is small in size in multiple materials. My goal is to create art that is more accessible in that these pieces can be hand held with surfaces that beg to be touched. More to come as the project moves forward!
