Visual Art – Sacramento

Each time I look at a piece of scrap metal, I don’t think about what it is. I think about what it can become. Transformation is a major theme in my work ... I transform discarded and scrap metal into art. I am transfixed by the process of melting metal as I weld. The textures left behind when the sparks are gone excite and inspire me. The transformed piece has taken on a new life.
