Central to all the CONSTRUCTION series is a mask. Here the mask is HAGUS, constructed from automobile oil pans, torque converter parts and clutch springs. The variegated surface is composed of layers of oil based paint which is lightly sanded to give this appearance. The skeleton, made of flattened windshield wiper parts has a similar surface. HAGUS and skeleton are placed on one of my large layered pieces called, HOLSTEIN SPRING made from car seat springs (alas, these are rare these days having been replaced with foam), separator plates from an automatic transmission and old metal roofing.

Though I trained in Ceramics, I had exposure to sculpture while in art school and after many years as a ceramicist, I moved into sculpture exploring mediums until I discovered car parts, welding and shovels. It's been downhill ever since. During my car part exploration, I was also a transportation activist. I discovered car parts in Maine in 2005, moved to Watertown, NY in 2009, to Kingston, Ontario in 2011 and Fort Erie Ontario in 2020. My art career has consisted of solo shows, grants for community based art and schools and an art activity printing t-shirts with car parts and tires that I presented at festivals, art centres and schools. I currently have some gallery representation, but am mostly going the on-line sales route.
