I love creating statues and using different mediums to do so. With use of pvc, chicken wire, foam and other materials, I create some beautiful pieces that often trick onlookers into thinking they are chiseled from stone.
Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration from all things but nature is one of the biggest. The statues I've created, I used vintage wedding dresses that I wanted to capture the beauty of them.
What would you do with $25,000?I would use it to obtain all the tools and materials needed to continue my passion of creating and allowing me to explore other areas and mediums.
