Original artwork description:

Ripples is a response to Wag… a piece I recently sold. Wag seemed so obvious and simple but as it occupied my living room for several months, it’s exceptional grace and power grew with each passing day. Ripples is a complementary response to Wag and also possesses the same characteristics of grace & power exemplified by its sister piece Wag.

All of my sculptures are made out of wood (Cedar). They are intended to be placed in an interior environment only. My sculptures are photographed both inside & outside. The interior shots (White background) are intended to give the viewer a sense of what my work would look like in an interior setting. The exterior shots were important to give the viewer a more accurate sense of color and texture, and perfectly balanced natural light distracting shadows.

I have always had an affinity for creating with wood. Over the years I've restored 10 properties. Several were historic. One is listed on the National Registry of Historic Structures. I've also built wooden boats. My career was dedicated to teaching studio art at three different colleges over a period of 44 years. I've exhibited in NYC, Washington D.C., Philadelphia, Florence Italy, Liverpool England, and numerous museums and galleries throughout the US. Creating challenging provocative work has been a life long goal. I consider myself a process artist. My that I mean... I enjoy making the work. After that I basically leave it in the hands of the gods.

Ripples comes with an 18" tall base. The base of the sculpture slides easily into the slotted base. The base is shipped seperately.
