I find the language of art a fundamental form of communication. My art is my dictionary, my thesaurus, my way of claiming words and giving them form. The creative process is a natural extension of my thoughts. Words become images—become ideas—become form—become expression. Linked. Complete. This process is a way for me to speak beyond words, straight—quite literally—to the heart of the matter. Past gender, race, religion and language to the voice within us all.
Creating is my spiritual journey. This journey has taken me down many paths but I find sculpture the truest expression of my spirit and the best way to speak my truth.
I came home to New Mexico and to Shidoni Foundry to live my art. I now manage the foundry. A dream come true on all accounts.
I was meant to speak through my hands and from my heart.
