My Sculptural work is mainly produced using the lost wax casting method in which an image is created in wax, a plaster mold is constructed around it and temperature is applied. Through controlling this movement I am able to create a delicate and organic torn edge, which contrasts the rest of architectural form. The torn edge then becomes relic and reliquary for these abstract and symbolic containers. Hot sculpted elements or mixed media are often used in conjunction with the cast forms.

My blown glass vessels have imagery within the layers.  The “Birth of Stars” series is based on images of brilliantly colored nebulae. Inspired by images of gas and dust condensing into stars, I use tweezers to apply shards of glass and gold foil as part of the glassblowing process.
