About Me

Salt Lake City, Utah, United States
I have a B.A. in Sculpture and a M.A. in Fine Arts from Hofstra University in New York. Most of my works were created and exhibited right after college. In the last 35 years, I have been pursuing my career as a Plastic Injection Moldmaker. For me, the intricate process of building and repairing the ‘molds’ was an excellent substitute for the process of creating a sculpture. During that time, I have also kept my artistic talents honed by designing and building stage sets for my wife’s Ballet school. When time permitted, I have continued to create a limited number of sculptures. I have recently retired and so, I can now return to my passion of creating Welded Steel Sculptures.

Creative juices were flowing.

I did some minor repositioning of the elements in the 'circle' piece, welded it all together and signed it. It will nne to be primed and painted. I had another idea for a piece that looks like balloons. I welded circles onto rods and then positioned the elements. A great start.

Sunday Afternoon

I went out to work in the studio. I ran out of propane on the larger heater; but, it was warm at that point. I reinstalled the front grate on the electric heater and found that it actually helped it to output more heat. I examined my flower piece again. After a few minutes of trying to add more to it, I decided that it would be fine just as it is. So I signed the work. I began to arrange some of the circles into a new sculpture. By just tacking them to each other, it gave me the leeway to reposition the elements. I stopped at that point.
