      Built my studio into my home in early 1992, and began several sculpture projects for National Public Art competitions. Established my art in 18 State Art Slide Registries. At this time, I was producing about 8 new pieces of sculpture per year... I entered my sculpture in over a dozen top art show venues, winning several first, second, third, and Honorable mention awards. I am still today involved in the Texas Sculpture Association and The International Sculpture Center in Washington, DC... Having built my own Web Site in 2002, and having my art work published in 2008 through 2012, by two Art Publishers, has begun the task of marketing exposure... I am excited about all the possibilities that lay ahead.
