My works are as much about texture as they are about form. Aging, wear, and decay are the textures of a rural life. The often whimsical application of various materials employed to maintain old derelict structures and equipment speak of lives lived, of hardship, and of determination. The remoteness of Oregon’s high desert country leads to a frugality and a character that can seem almost to be from another time.
