Shape Shifter

I always want my work to go beyond the usual.  I’m therefore inquisitive regarding the nature of the various materials with which I’ve worked. What is inherent? What is suggested?  What is probable?  More importantly, what is improbable?  If an object I’ve made is true, it should be a vehicle of engagement and contemplation with a distinctive spirit that relays a multi-layered story through its visual complexity.  I hope Shape Shifter also communicates joy of process; delight in workmanship of risk that is the result of a successful integration of eye, hand and soul.
