I am a self-taught artist and I have been creating art for over 30 years. I create metal Assemblage sculpture and furniture from everyday found and salvaged junk. Many times I have an idea of what I want to make and search for the pieces I need and other times I find a piece and it tells me what to make. My sculptures are often kinetic and humorous. I get great joy from watching people interact with the movement and I especially love to see them smiling and laughing at my creations.
