Art by the Ton
The show is over and what a great success and gesture to all those that supported my efforts.
I will be back at the Arts Project in downtown London in March 2011 for a group show and again November 1, 2011 for another Solo Show!

The creation of my art is generally a dangerous endeavour. Sparks fly, flames shoot and molten steel explodes on the floor. The obvious perils of distraction awaken me to look at what I have created thus far. As quick as these realities snap me out of my focus my eye catches a form in the forest or in a scrap pile that deserves tribute. I surround myself with preshaped efforts, pictures and tools and create what I want and feel and see.
Through the use of repurposed scrap steel or new stock my art forms in natural lines and suggestions or realities of natural forms. It is thrilling to use such force to create such grace. Explosive power, brute strength and searing heat fuse and form a feather or a leaf. It is fun, it is work, and it is me.
