Portraits of Homes, 2D and 3D

I have been creating portraits 
of homes since 1982.  I created 
a sculptural series of historic 
architecture for the Boulder, CO
Arts Commission, the city of 
Aspen and more than 200 
commissions for private collectors. 
This is a small selection of the 
commissioned homes.  
Media include porcelain, watercolor, 
pen & ink, pastels, graphite

Van Gogh in true 3-D...

I worked on a film about 
van Gogh's life in the 1990s 
called Crow in the Storm.

Laid out as a path through 
his life by way of his paintings, 
envisioned through 100 pages 
of color storyboards for 
traditional animation-
save for a final scene shot 
depicting van Gogh's death,
to the music of John Fogarty,
Long As I Can See The Light.

The movie never got made.

But from it sprung a need to create 
Vincent van Gogh and his world 
in actual 3-D to accentuate the 
concept. Some three dimensional
versions, in clay, of Van Gogh...
Most of the photographs are taken 
by Jerry Downs.

What We Talk About When 

We Talk About Cancer.

Many of the models for these 

works were statuary that at one 

time inhabited the Sacred Space 

of Summerland, California.

Some of the images shown here 

are from murals and are lifesize. 

Modern ARF thanks them for

their spiritual and artistic inspiration.

The artist also spends time 

haunting the Asian collection 

of the Norton Simon Museum 

for additional inspiration.
