Born into a family sandstone business in Lyons, Colorado, we provided the Lyons community with sandstone for retaining walls, sidewalks, and patios. In 2004, I attended a stone carving workshop in Rinconada, New Mexico. Introduced to limestone for the first time, OMG! I was able to carve into this material, unlike the sandstone I grew up with. I can now create a "pillow" that one wants to touch and see if it is really as soft as it appears. My work consists geometric and abstract design, along with everyday objects.
