Sculpture will last a lot longer than painting.

At any one time, I'll have 30 to 40 pieces going on in the studio, so this is not economically driven at all.

My goal is to make fine art, and fine art comes from the soul. If you have virtuosity and facility, you can take and create something of significance.

I cannot tell you how many people, powerful people, come to my studio and they are in tears they are so moved by what they see.

Sculpture will last a lot longer than painting.

I'm always looking for the next challenge.

I never had a job. I bought my first house within a year of getting out of school, and I built a custom one four and a half years later. The Art Center didn't teach much about business, but I learned a lot from the Fortune 500 companies that were my clients.
