There is a connection between the maker and the object.

I have always sought the reason behind the act of creating. The objects that I make all tell a story ... the story of the maker, of the material, of the place it was made.

These pieces I create are about all of those who have given inspiration. They make a connection between myself and the people who choose to live with them, telling a bit of each of our lives, leaving that for those who will come to ponder.

In my travels I have found it very important to listen to these stories and respond. The objects I make show that response.

I look forward to hearing new stories and to sharing them.
