Sculpture

My work explores the unique interpretation of light and color. Like a prism bending light waves, I manipulate resins, rare earth minerals, and their intrinsic properties to absorb and re-emit light. Creating a surface-captivating dance of illumination and shadow. As a result, this distinctive use of materials allows me to channel the transformative power of light, akin to the dynamic strokes of paint on a canvas.

My creations are not just static sculptures. Moods are crafted through an application of color theory. The latest series is a collection of botanical molds cast with a strong palette of rare earth elements. Consequently, the light and wave spectrums create an opportunity to use bold colors. In short, these elements infuse the sculpture and light with a luminosity that transcends the physical, touching the spiritual.

My work, which glows in the dark, harnesses the incandescence of the rare earth elements. The works of art create a glowing evocation. Something that strikes a chord with our innate spiritual nature. My hope is the work will resonate with viewers on a deeper, more intrinsic level. In each piece, a visual experience and a spiritual journey are illuminated by the artistry.

Stories from the book of Exodus have provided vital inspiration and instruction. Imagining the stories acts as a catalyst.

The “transendant” became visible, first with Moses, appearing as a flame in a bush that does not burn up.

Moses encounters an angel of the Lord in a “holy” place. As he approaches the phenomena, the voice of Yahweh calls him. The one-on-one transcendent experience overwhelms Moses. A transcendent journey beckons.


The Artist Journey cover Dec 2022

Retirement is a good friend to our communion with God. When we are alone, God is with us. The universe declares glory, beauty and transcendence.

There are some indespensable tools for the journey to the Promised Land. Moses floated in a good boat as a baby. The wilderness journey takes you to the Promised Land.

Moses saw more of God in a desert than ever he had seen in Pharaoh’s court.

AI (artificial intelligence) is a unique media. The dream-like illusions are perfect for displaying in a digital gallery. AI creates visual art from spoken words. Let that sink in.

I cherish your feedback as an artist…please! And thank you.

I invite you to view a compilation of the pieces I created in a video format.

The Artist Journey
Bright lights stand out against the approaching darkness. It is cold in the desert, the air has been refreshed by recent winter rains. My sense of seclusion inspires thoughts about preperation for one’s next journey.
I created the cover of The Artists Journey using several AI programs that bring into existence my thoughts as images. Specific filters and artistic editing made these dream-like imaginary landscapes.Photos of my sculpture, with its unique spectrum of color and light, become the background and subject of my new work for 2023.

The Digital Image below is my meta gallery to display my work.The first piece on the wall uses the words: Burning Bush.The second one uses: Jesus Feeds 5,000

The third piece on the wall uses the words: Exodus-Journey to the Promised LandOn the opposite wall, paper airplanes fly to and from the Promised Land. A collaboration of ideas with Sandra..
