Artist's Statement:
I build wooden shadowboxes and creatively frame and enclose them behind glass. They are small worlds originating in my soul, then taking shape intuitively with people I sculpt from clay. Caught in a moment in time, I usually paint a suitable background with acrylics. Some of my shadowboxes include intricate beadwork, items formed from stained glass, tiny hand-sewn clothing, photographs, etc. I also incorporate leather, metal, wood, fibre, and many found objects which have collected the aura of past owners and reflect the emotions of another day.
The shadowboxes are intimate and intricate. Hopefully perhaps, they will invoke memories in you.
