College of Marin, Kentfield, CA ARTIST
STATEMENT Seeking
graceful clarity of line, I search for the
abstract sculptural form within the
malleable material I shape.
My work is a meditation and an
exploration, as well as a manipulation.
I probe for the most elegant
simplicity, transforming the material
manually into the organic and curvilinear
forms that I love - my visual poems. SELECTED
