Corten Steel Sculpture. Part of the artist's "I Can Soar" Series celebrating the "bad-ass" goddesses among us.

She’s 8ft tall and is composed of a mix of rhythmic slats and large panels of steel. The composition is meant to convey her power and yearning for control. The sunburst centered on, or emitting from, her core speaks of the mightiness of women's inner strength. And particularly appropriate for Aphrodite as the godhead of female sexual power and erotic love.

She is constructed of welded weathering Steel. Weathering steel will develop a burnt-orange patina and then stop rusting. She’ll be stable in the landscape for decades without need for maintenance. Weathering steel was developed for bridge building.

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.
