Instructor
I've been making and building things all of my adult life. Although my day job is a computer consultant, I got serious about art 12 years ago, and since then I've made over 60 sculptures out of metal or wood. I've made the art in my garage, using basic tools and my own self-developed techniques. I'm represented by galleries in Palm Springs and Santa Fe.
