If I Had To Describe My Work

We Leave Our Presence In The Pavement. We're Walking Over It, Sitting On Steps.

Stones Are Checked Every So Often To See If Any Have Split Or At Worst Exploded. An Explosion Can Leave Debris In The Elements So The Firing Has To Be Abandoned.

It's Just That When I Work On Someone Else's Land, It Makes Me Aware Of The Social Nature Of That Landscape.

I Have Six Acres In Front Of My Own House, Which I Very Rarely Work On. Most Of The Work Occurs On Farmers' Fields Around Me. And I Like The Discipline Of Working On Other People's Land.

My Art Is An Attempt To Reach Beyond The Surface Appearance. I Want To See Growth In Wood, Time In Stone, Nature In A City, And I Do Not Mean Its Parks But A Deeper Understanding That A City Is Nature Too-the Ground Upon Which It Is Built, The Stone With Which It Is Made.
