In my sculptures and paintings, I inevitably call forth a human figure, usually female.

The paintings are a mix of drawing and pigmentation materials, whereas the sculpted figures may remain in their original forms of clay, construction materials, plant fiber or fabric.  Others may be cast in plaster or bronze.

Often times, one of these sculpted figures is reinvented through a size and material change.  The result is a reincarnation of the essence of the piece with a lingering flavor of the original.

Frequently a new sculpture emerges from the shapes discarded in the working process of this reinvention, resulting in a further reincarnation as a new line in the family.
