Plant/Rock Particulars are studies in the shapes and forms that, for some intrinsic reason, continually manifest themselves in endless subtle variations as I autonomously sketch — filling volumes.

These objects, not only show form and texture, but resonate our unconscious ties and associations with nature’s forms and building structures.
