BLACKBEARD is mounted on one of my layered metal sculptures, PETRO-CANYON where the deepest layer is water-like patterns derived from spraying paint through the automatic transmission parts that I had sliced thin. The middle layer capitalizes on the mass production of car parts. In this case, it's five oil pans from four wheel drive trucks. The shapes remind me of headlands The top layer is a delicate arrangement of car part artifacts linked together with thin rod and suspended over the landscape. The articulated joints in the skeleton are from a VW van engine--incredibly beautiful and also THIN (welding them was difficult). The mask, SPOCK, is made mostly from shovels. I enjoy cutting and rejoining them to create convex shapes. I brought these three elements together to make this piece.

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.
