The artist writes:
"For the past several years, my work has focused on wood
panels or constructions composed of laminated wood. The
surface is carved by hand using large chisels and gouges
that give a rippling effect almost like water. The
surface can, in turn, be carved into again to make
textures and flat surfaces that are painted or drawn
upon. Throughout the compositions the handmade quality
of the wooden objects and images within the construction
gives it a visual continuity that has warmth to it
unlike other materials."
"The carved surfaces of the panels are reminiscent of Pacific Northwest and Native American architectural frontispieces. The rigid nature of the wood panel also allows me to cut holes in the surface with saws to create shadow boxes and niches that, once painted, create an ambiguous space into which other objects can be placed that can be sometimes graphic and sometimes contemplative. Specific images within these spaces offer up random as well as specific kinds of association. The organic nature of the material is complemented by contrasting brilliant and somber painted colors."
