Since
1977, I have been exhibiting my furniture pieces and staircases
in galleries and shows throughout the Northeast. My staircases
have been photographed and published in publications that
include Architectural Digest, American Craft Magazine, the
New York Times, and the Burlington Free Press. I have appeared
on the Discovery Channel with Lynette Jennings, Design in
a 1998 interview of me as I demonstrate my spiral staircase
technique in my workshop. In 1984, I received first prize
in the architectural category for a grand tapering spiral
staircase on exhibit at the show "The Woodworker"
in Philadelphia.
One-of-a-kind,
sensitively designed furniture, sculpture, and architectural
woodworking comprise most of my work. Projects are explored,
designed, and commissioned individually to satisfy the client's
needs, tastes, and sometimes, whims. I have made a variety
of tables, beds, cabinets, home accessories, staircases, and
sculptures.
I
consider my staircases to be functional sculptures. Their
graceful and complex curves enhance their locations. My furniture
often includes inlay or carving, details that make the piece
unique.
My
work has taken me many places. During the winter of 1985,
I worked on a major wooden sculpture of a phoenix for the
Garden State Racetrack in Cherry Hill, New Jersey. In 1986,
I carved all the forms used to restore the ceiling of the
Executive Chambers in the Vermont Statehouse. During the fall
of 1992, I was working on the restoration of an elegant sugar
plantation house in Barbados. In 1993, I sculpted architectural
details used to restore the House Chambers in the Vermont
Statehouse.
Wood
and woodworking are a passion for me.
