The main thrust of his work is defined by his focus on the capacity for the embodiment of the symbolic which is intrinsic to the human form. My earliest award was a certificate signed by Walt Disney which I received when I was in Kindergarten. At 15, I began sculpting and casting my work into bronze under the direction of Sculptor Douglas Churchill and through a program provided by the Garden Grove School District. As well as receiving formal academic training, I sought out professional experiences such art foundry, mold making, bronze casting, commercial sculpting, etc. Always keeping my main attention towards developing as a fine artist.
Sculpture is a hybrid between the poetics of form and a pragmatic understanding of physical reality.
A sculptor is a problem solver whose task is to express intellectual or emotional concepts using spatial understanding. A passion to create, persistence, integrity in work and business, and clarity in my goals. You must understand your dreams before you can fulfill them. I feel I am a part of the great tradition of classical artists. Outside the structure of modern society, this role of fine artist affords me rewards rather than punishment for maintaining my own individuality.
