Making sculptural forms in glass and metal since 1999.  Inspired primarily by nature. My basic principle is the sculpting of natural forms. The details in this creation are in perfect harmony with the shape of the subject. The result is a satisfying art form and emotional expression.

 

Every sculpture is cast in pewter, polished, copper-plated, and then rhodium-plated. Once the sculpture has been re-polished, numerous pieces of Swarovski crystals are carefully applied by hand.
