The raw energy required to create this wood, metal, and ceramic artist’s work can be overwhelming. In a given day he may be at the forge, hammering wrought iron and copper elements by hand; at the potter’s wheel, expertly throwing delicate clay vessels; and in the woodworking studio, shaping elements for his sculpture and fine furnishings. Energy and passion for creation comes through in each piece. For two decades since earning a degree in Materials Science Engineering, he has pursued novel, artistic ways to combine materials. Copper-saturated Raku-fired ceramic tiles and vessels, fine furniture, and mixed media sculpture show his work to be a true “coalescence of form, function, and art.”
