What has always been important to me is the expression a line and how it can take on a life of it's own when manipulated. Thru a line, you can grasp a feeling, the essence or emotion of a movement. A moment or observation, frozen and captured in time. I consider my sculpture, as a form of line drawing in space that which tries to convey a story
or a feeling, that which hopefully can relate to many.
Steel has a wonderful flexibility that most don't realize. Most have thought that you need heat, or a forge to bend the steel, but that is not always the case. I have been bending steel for many years without any form of forge or heating process. With the steel. I do use a welder, to bring steel lines together to create a new piece of art. All the bending is a cold process, without heat. You can pretend to be superman and bend steel with your own hands. I usually enjoy using other materials with the steel, such as concrete and wood.
