I am a sculptor and printmaker and often work on a very large scale.

My sculptural mediums include bronze, neon, paper, resins, textile, steel and wood.

I am also the owner and master printmaker at Gravity Press Experimental Print Shop where I have one of the largest platen presses in the world.

My work has been exhibited widely in museums and are in a great many public and private collections.

I have received many grants and awards including the Pollock-Krasner Foundation Award, Gotlieb Foundation, Joan Mitchell Foundation Grant and most recently,

The University of Louisiana College of the Arts, "SPARK" Lifetime Achievement Award (2023).

My 10.5 foot x 32 foot monoprint and sculpture installation, Ephemera: River with Flowers (below) is probably the largest monoprint ever made by a single artist; this work is in the Frederick R. Weisman Collection.
