Where do you find inspiration?I am drawn to flowing sensual curves and the macrobiotic intricacies of nature. My sculptures are drawn from these chaotic, molecular entities and the natural growth of the root systems of trees
What would you do with $25,000?Tools. Materials. It has been my lifelong goal to support my family with my art. Specifically this will give me an opportunity to purchase a CNC machine that will save my ailing wrists and bolster my sculptural output.
