PHOEBE

   A highly selective choice obtained from vast collections of eclectic found objects evolve into three-dimensional expressive vehicles.  In my sculptural portraits inanimate objects evoke memories that tell stories, literal, playful, allegorical, strange and sometimes provocative. This is my medium.

     The process by which I create starts with a carefully orchestrated plan.  First I set up each element of design and concept in an elaborate sequential balancing act from the inside out. Then I disassemble everything only to reassemble and finish a complete portrait with its intimate yet universal perspective.
