I installed two new sculptures at the Viles arboretum on 12-November: Owl rising and Solium.

As always, admission is free and you are welcome to enjoy them in their verdant setting.

Both are available for purchase.

I was unable to participate in this year’s sculpture symposium at the Viles arboretum, as I have in past years.

I am pleased to read of its success:

I hope to attend next year.

Being a sculptor comes with challenges that you might not expect.  Sometimes, one acts as a toolsmith.

The lathe and the drill press are tools that are associated with work in wood and metal.

Recently, I worked on a cylindrical project in stone, and had to adapt machine tools.

Here are some sights and sounds.

In April of 2016, I spent a week as an artist in residence at the University of Maine in Orono.

I always enjoy interacting with students and staff.

I’ll finish the sculpture at my studio in the next few months, after which it will be installed in Orono when the site preparations are complete. An article in UMaine Today describes my visit.

In May of 2014, Erin Little interviewed me and documented a tour of my studio on her blog.

I appreciate her flattering photographs and kind words.

On June 1, 2013 the Maine Maritime Museum celebrated the second phase of our Wyoming Evocation by hoisting special flags up the masts. Since then, the masts have been illuminated, creating a new experience in the evening.

The design is a life-size evocation of the schooner Wyoming, the largest wooden sailing ship ever built in the United States.  Due to the ambitious scale and funding limitations, it was constructed in two phases.

It’s great to see our vision develop.
