Year you began at The Block (or would have started): 2008

 Can you tell us a bit about your background? What should we know about
you?

In college, I concentrated on 3 areas of work. Bronze casting, ceramics (hand building & throwing) and assemblage (assembling found objects by welding or mechanically).

In my work as a museum preparator I have been able to use skills that I developed in college. These include sculpting, welding, mold making, and casting. 

 What can you share with us about the work you created for this project?

I’ve been interested in and making candles for 30+ years. Here are some studio photos and some of what I like to call my “candle altars”.
