Specialties: Found Object Art is my primary focus. Found Objects were used first in site specific installations then in the mid eighties the pieces became unified objects in the form of a lamp or light sculpture. Current sculptures and installations are composed mostly of the artifacts of work. Materials are found in the industrial salvage yards and at rural auctions. These objects may be juxtaposed with consumer items and / or hand blown glass"
