Artist's Statement: I try to always view the world with wonder and curiosity and to somehow manifest that curiosity of shapes, colors, lines, textures, clay, fire, rocks, water so on into something that will inspire imagination and wonder in other people. Combining these elements makes me exceedingly happy so I do it again and again with endless variations until "poof", about 50 years have gone by and I'm not even close to exhausting all the possibilities.
