Artist's Statement
My work draws upon the diversity of the natural world and humankind's spiritual
relationship to it as its primary source of inspiration. It is intended that my
work serve as a vehicle for dialog with which the viewer can explore their
relationship to both the physical and spiritual worlds, whether it be collective
or personal.
