Etruscan figures must also be added to this list of influences. Sculpture fascinates me because it occupies space. It can be approached from any angle and appears differently depending on the hour of the day or season of the year as the light changes. Unlike music which is one dimensional-sounds intended to be played in a specific order, at a specific speed, or two dimensional paintings, which often have an intrinsic scanning order built in for the eye to follow, sculpture has no initial or final state. You are free to come and go as you please.
Art is a media that provides a dialogue between the artist and the viewer.
A work of art is not complete until it is observed by other than the artist who created it. The art is the physical evidence that a creative process has been achieved. A sculpture looks and feels right if the discovery process is completed. My work has become more and more geometric. I use a lot of color.
