I have independently conceived the processes by which each of my sculptures are created. The primary materials are copper, stainless steel, bronze, glass enamel, and glass. Each of the works is comprised of hammered and/or forged copper plates brazed to a welded stainless steel armature. Some of the works are then completed with torch-applied phosphor bronze and welded silicon bronze. Many works are finished with kiln fired glass enamel and flameworked Effetre and borosilicate glass.
