I have a B.A. in Sculpture and a M.A. in Fine Arts from Hofstra University in New York. Most of my works were created and exhibited right after college. In the last 35 years, I have been pursuing my career as a Plastic Injection Moldmaker. For me, the intricate process of building and repairing the ‘molds’ was an excellent substitute for the process of creating a sculpture. During that time, I have also kept my artistic talents honed by designing and building stage sets for my wife’s Ballet school. When time permitted, I have continued to create a limited number of sculptures. I have recently retired and so, I can now return to my passion of creating Welded Steel Sculptures.
