Figures

Ten years ago I began to work on bas relief figurative sculptures, a major departure from the abstract sculptures which were inspired by the wood form and grain.  I had collected a number of straight-grained logs of cherry and elm, at it seemed appropriate to use the human form for sculpting in these beautiful pieces of wood.
