EMPLOYMENT

09/1976-present
Artist /Wood Sculptor – Studio: Philadelphia, PA.  From 1976 through 2005 I sculpted episodically, rarely exhibited publicly and gave most completed works away as gifts often without photographing them. During this period, I sold work through a private network of patrons and benefactors. Since 2005 I have devoted a significant portion of my time towards developing my career as a professional artist and sculptor. Consequently, I have been able to create a significant body of new work, now making it possible to exhibit and sell my sculpture to the public.
