Marine Plywood
Part of the Momentum Series

Q.U.E.E.N is part of the Momentum series celebrating everyday women and was inspired by the courage of Janelle Monae in embracing the non-normal. Like all pieces in the series are both figurative and abstract -- abstracting the motion of the dance into a rhythmic geometry. The piece starts with a wax model at a 1/3 human scale. The model is then digitized and manipulated digitally using multiple computer programs. The individual components are fabricated and assembled. The piece uses traditional woodworking as well as advanced computer-aided manufacturing (CNC fabrication). The wood is marine-grade Douglas Fir and the assembly is fully waterproof. However, the piece will darken and gray if exposed to UV rays. The sculpture is on industrial casters -- part of the aesthetic.

The artwork, like most in the series, took more than 4 months to complete.

I Sculpt Movement.

I sculpt motion. I uses graphic lines of wood and steel to explore the motion and energy of dancers. Often working larger-than-life, my works will animate your home or garden. My passion is motion -- not the material. And thus, I explore different materials, at different scales, and with different levels of abstraction to explore how to enhance a sense of rhythm and motion in a static sculpture.
I was born in Casper, Wyoming in 1952 but I’ve mostly lived in cities on both the east and west coasts. Equally adept in both right- and left-brain activities, I’ve followed passions in both spheres. As a younger adult and mid-level professional, I pursued more analytic careers such as software development and corporate management and relegated my artistic side to avocations. As I became more confident in myself, I found ways to integrate both the analytic and artistic into my later careers – first as the owner of a home design/remodeling firm and now as a full-time sculptor. My sculptural work is heavy in digital design and fabrication.
