“The experience of viewing light through colored and faceted glass is like watching fire. Light captivates the viewer like nothing else. When I design a sculpture, I expect the light component to generate a sculptural performance all its own.
Size wise, my sculptures are intended to have a big impact, which, in an outdoor setting, simply requires a big sculpture. There’s nothing like coming eye-to-eye with huge, happy bees and zooming dragonflies and massive, colorful butterflies that brings those creatures into focus for people in a wonderful way.”
