Growing up in a small town in Montana with few possessions, the mountain behind our house became a giant playground full of nature’s wonders from moss-covered rocks to spring creeks. My love of what nature could produce was firmly rooted. I would spend my retirement years combining that love with a passion to sculpt, with most of my works driven by humor, the one thing that keeps me somewhat sane in a not-so-sane world. If my works bring an observer to laugh, ponder or to appreciate, I have accomplished my mission.
