A modern interpretation of classical designs and a love of nature are my inspiration.  After my apprenticeship, I developed my own designs over the ensuing 30 years.  I have received numerous awards and I am a juried member of the following organizations:  Tennessee Association of Craft Artists (TACA); Kentucky Guild of Artists and Craftsmen; Foothills Craft Guild; Ohio Designer Craftsmen; Louisville Artisan Guild and Mississippi Craftsmen Guild.
