My work is a reflection of my utmost desire to create beauty and serenity using the most basic and ideal proportions.  Nothing is more perfect than what we find in the natural world.  I am inspired by Louis Sullivan, William Morris, Frank Lloyd Wright and by the Arts and Crafts Movement and by the dedicated artisans who love their craft. 

"....History has remembered the kings and warriors, because they destroyed; Art has remembered the people, because they created...That thing which I understand by real art is the expression by man of his pleasure in labour.  I do not believe he can be happy in his labour without expressing that happiness.."  William Morris, 'The Art of the People' [lecture, 1879]
