Artist statement: "I derive much on my inspiration from the environment, especially the garden and the woods surrounding my home and studio. My sculptures relate to the environmental concerns, climate change, and nature.

My chandeliers and lighting belong to a contemporary line of the "decorative arts" that developed from the arts and crafts movement where craftsmanship is of the utmost importance. Striving for the "perfect object" is the goal of the craftsman/designer and working directly with the materials at hand provides the greatest satisfaction for me."

Good condition; no electrical components included.
