Not For Sale
"After Math I and II" are flirtations with configuration. The very best I can without the use of measurement, and without full compliance of the material. I work to see how far the feeling goes. They are like bodies in the aftermath of passion.

These wood assemblages are compositions that randomly emerge from cutting, shaping and arranging pieces of wood, most of which is aged tongue and groove Douglas Fir. Once assembled I sand and paint and stain. The finished piece is waxed and polished.
"I aspire to work as easily with wood as though it were a pencil, so I might scribble and doodle until there is something worth strengthening, aiming for a suggestion that might be easily acknowledged, all the while moving at such a pace that the material seems to assemble itself."
