"Although my early sculpture was abstract in focus, I was drawn to the beauty of bronze figurative sculpture. When I created my first sculpture out of clay, I had a sense I had found my passion. Since that first sculpture a main thread in my life has been to portray the content of a person, to capture through the face and figure the spiritual essence of the individual."
