The success of this endeavor may be measured by the high quality of my furniture and the testimonials of my clients. By 1990, waning enthusiasm for traditional work inspired a search for new opportunities. I expanded my method of working by supplementing the precision and repetition of craft with the uncertainty and excitement of art. This new direction is an exploration of dreams and visions, constructed of carved elements whose shape and arrangement are not dictated by tradition. Best of all, the opportunity to create original works has engaged my imagination.
Enthusiasm is back.
I continue to craft traditional pieces for clients while developing my personal expression. Having empowered my imagination, I am doing fine work in both realms.
