Potomac Constructions

These sculptures incorporate materials collected from the Potomac River shore. They represent the spiritual and mysterious effects this river has on my creativity. I have come to regard my experience making these pieces as a form of spiritual channeling. Responding to materials that interest me, the relationships that suggest how to connect items to each other comes to me as an intuitive revelation. Each sculpture seems to embody a power or emotional output of its own. I can't help but marvel at the mystery of this process.
