I've been an artist most of
my life. But, I have always considered myself to be a creative
artist rather than just an artist. As an artist most people usually
come up to me and ask "Oh, do you do portraits?". When I tell them
"No" they usually get this dissapointed look and start to walk
away. As a creative artist people don't seem to think of portraits
at all. They usually ask "Oh yeah, what
do you do?" and then I can tell them about my creative pursuits. Most
times they still get confused looks anyway.
I have formal training in Graphic
Design and Visual Communications but have spent the last ten years trying
to untrain myself so as to realese more of the free flowing creative
juices inside of me. I am a self taught sculptor and ever since
the first time I picked up a piece of metal and started to bend,
melt, and pound on it I fell in love with working with metal. I
have taught myself how to weld and cut metal and have been pursuing
metal sculpture since.
I have always loved flowing water,
things that move and large things. Funny but true. In my metal
sculpture i am pursuing Kinetic Sculpture, Found Art and Interesting
mixtures of Water, Metal and Movement.
I have been learning how to bend
metal in interesting ways to increase the feeling of movement.
I am pusrsuing this and feel really in touch with the flow of the
metal.
