Statement

I have been making furniture for 18 years.  During that time my work has evolved to be more organic both in design and technique.  Forms in nature have always been my primary inspiration.  I admire the simplicity and economy of the natural world where each material shows its full range of possibilities. 

Functional furniture is everywhere.  What I strive for in my furniture and what I admire in that of others are pieces which can be sculptures.  Animated, balanced, interesting forms enhanced by color and grain.  Beautiful, natural materials used in innovative or unexpected ways.  Forms which are most of all beautiful, and yes, also very functional.
