--MY BUSINESS- I have been a professional metalsmith since 1977. Engaged in Custom work and Restoration. I have experience in most all aspects of metalworking techniques in Silver, Brass, Copper, Bronze and Steel.
I have more than 40 years experience in Lost Wax casting and Rubber molding. The wide range of techniques I use provides a broad range for me to draw upon as to how a project may be designed and made.---
--MY PHILOSOPHY---simple- QUALITY IN DESIGN AND CRAFTSMANSHIP
--- MY WORK--All of my work shown here were custom projects!! When I design and produce a piece, be it functional or purely decorative, I obligate myself to make the finest product my abilities and the material will allow. I really enjoy combining contemporary design and organic forms using traditional techniques. ---
-- I enjoy the custom design process with a client. My ability to help interpret and bring to life an idea for a client and educate in what is involved in the production continues to be exciting and creative.
