Q.	I have a special occasion coming up, do you do private commissions?
A.	I can usually accommodate most requests.  I try to work with you and create something within your budget.  Time can be an issue, but is not always an obstacle.  I may even have a piece on hand that may suit your needs.

Q.	How long have you been carving?
A.	For about 14 years now.  I did auto body for years, and as a result of the machines used my hands were ruined.  I began sculpture as a therapy, and, well, the rest is history.

Q.	How long does it take to complete a large piece, such as The Gathering?
A.	If I kept track of time I probably wouldn't do this.  Once I get into a piece, it takes hold of me and can result in some very late nights.  The Gathering probably took a good part of 3 weeks to complete.  Once a piece is started, I can't wait to see the finished product!

   

Q.	Can I visit your studio?
A.	My studio is in my home, and there is not always someone there to give a proper tour.  I would suggest that if you want to visit, you should call ahead, so I can be available to show you around.

 

Q.	Do you do charitable donations?
A.	I usually give a few pieces a year to various charities.  Ducks Unlimited,  OSPCA, Keene Church restoration fundraiser, Cancer Society, Senior Associations etc..  Please contact me if you would like me to donate a piece for your fundraising event.

    

Q.	I understand you did a line of bronze funeral urns in the past, can I get one now?
A.	The urns are not in production at this moment.  However, if there was a renewed interest in them, I would certainly start to supply them again.  I have recently done urns in soapstone, for a few individuals.  These are much less expensive than urns you can get at a Funeral Home.  If you have a request, let me know.
