I'm currently exploring and developing a fabrication process that I believe to be uniquely my own, I then apply this technique to a subject mater, my preference often being the human form. The process involves cold forging by way of hammer and anvil. Sheet metals such as steel, stainless steel, and bronze are used to create the individual forms. Piece by piece I painstakingly template, cut, hammer form, grind, polish, and layer onto the overall sculpture. The process is time consuming, difficult, and the chances of "mission creep" a constant challenge. Mission creep, if you are unfamiliar with the terms means, if your a little off in the beginning, your way off at the end. However the challenges are largely what motivate me and I find the results well worth the effort.
