Metal Sculptures

Simplify, simplify, simplify. My aim with my work is to simplify and refine, be logical and harmonious. A number of years back, I made these metal sculptures of animals some of which have been included in the exhibit of my non-illustration art, Beyond Books: The Independent Art of Eric Carle currently at The Eric Carle Museum of Picture Book Art. I believe these sculptures are examples of my approach applied to its fullest extent. The most simplified figure I have created.

A Winter's Night

These days, I do not miss the winter, but I have fond memories of peaceful, snowy nights with bright stars in a clear dark sky.

South for the Winter

Just like the little rubber duck drifted South in my story, I have also happily migrated to warmer climates for the winter.

Happy 2013!

May there be peace for children everywhere

Some people are very good at finding calming words during unsettled times. I would like to add to the chorus with one of my pictures.

May there be peace for children everywhere. May there be peace for all.
