I sculpt portraits, figures and nature inspired imagery in direct wax or modeling clay. Most of my work is created for personal development and expression. As this sculpture is a collection of personal work, it is portrayed over long periods of time and may go through many versions before its completion and presentation. I have enjoyed taking on the challenge of learning about historical figures and creating a likeness that expresses their characteristics through a story in 3D form. Sculpting and carving bas reliefs, miniatures in wax and small scale figurative models of children at play, in nature are more forms of expression that I explore during my time in the studio.
