Marble and Stone Sculptures

The Italians call marble the "tears of the gods". It is an elegant material to sculpt, as it allows expression from the most delicate to the monumental, highly polished to natural texture, allowing light to penetrate and emanate from its surface. I enjoy shaping such a hard material as marble into sensuous, flowing forms that suggest the human spirit. When I leave elements unfinished or the natural stone the viewer is invited to complete sculpture in their mind’s eye.

Radish Goddess

Vermont Marble

I am inspired by the beauty of natural forms — from the massive shapes of rocks in the woods to the fascinating curves found in luscious vegetables. ‘Radish Goddess,’ is an abstraction of a radish with sensuously rounded curves, topped by leaves shooting upward in a gesture of life and strength
