I am a self taught artist. I am a sculptor and photographer.
Most of my sculptures are nude because I believe we are most honest and vulnerable when we are nude. It is something we can all identify with.
I always, no matter the form, make, not what I see, but what I feel and who I am. Up or down, good or bad, it's me. I am my model.
It is me that I know best, can and only wish to express through my art.
My art can be divided into 2 categories, my photography is what I see outside and my sculptures are what I feel inside. Honestly I think that may be what makes me a better sculptor than photographer.
People have said to me that my sculptures are so unique, so different, something they have NEVER SEEN. I find that flattering and most sad.
We should all learn to be honest with who we are, accept it and express it with out shame, fear or judgement.
