IN A WORLD OF CONSTANT STIMULATION I SEEK TO CREATE A SINGLE, BALANCED FORM.

With a focus on surface finish, texture and contrast I create contemporary sculpture that becomes real and holds meaning.

About Me

 

 

A sculptor from Northern Alberta with strong roots in British Columbia’s Gulf Island, I create contemporary sculptural work with a focus on my relationship with the urban and rural environments of my two homes. 

Most days you can find me in my Alberta studio, the rest of the time I’m visiting my retro-fitted shipping container on Gabriola Island for inspiration.

This was my workbench this morning. A male relief carving, one of the fifteen I’m making and while I am usually inspired by the female form there is beauty in every figure and gender. Each with their own narrative. #reliefcarving#woodcarving#figurativesculpture#contemporaryart#sculpture#sculptureinprogress#sculpturestudio
Image transfer onto cherry wood veneer. Presented on maple with cedar strips and a padauk base this is my take on gesture drawings that a person has to walk around to fully enjoy. #gesturedrawings#figurativedrawing#mixedmedia#woodworking#contemporaryart
This morning I was at the beach on Gabriola Island taking photographs of my sculptures. Here’s a sneak preview of what I’ve been working on for my upcoming November exhibition at the Art Gallery of Grande Prairie. #sculpture#woodsculpture#photographingsculpture#artistatwork
The human form and the colour blue. Inspiration and obsession come together to make this image transfer of a charcoal drawing on newsprint onto wood. #figuredrawing#imagetransferonwood#paintingblue#charcoaldrawing
I’m framing up this figure drawing for a group show at the end of the month. I love the contrast between the ballon-like abstracted form and the linear lines of this worn wooden frame. #figuredrawing#abstractfigure#pastelfiguredrawing
I have tried other mediums but working with wood, even a piece of spruce like this one just feels right somehow. A detail of the latest work in-progress. #workinprogress#woodworking#abstractsculpture
