The creation of monuments is extremely time-consuming and
labor intensive. Spending hours on ladders and scaffolding is physically
demanding, but the labor gives me great personal satisfaction. It’s also mentally
challenging, requiring an initial design and the creation of a clay model. To
cast my clay models in bronze, I prefer the lost wax method, the process by
which a duplicate metal sculpture is cast from an original sculpture. I know
that if I have a tool in my hand and I invest enough time and effort, no
project or idea will be too big, and I will get it done. The best feeling as an
artist comes when you put everything you have into something difficult and you
finish it, completely spent.
