Junkyards provide an endless source of inspiration and raw materials for my artwork. I have sympathy for the vehicles assigned to this end; they are like unwanted members of a family. Car cadavers display technology’s advances as they are slowly abandoned, neglected, and ultimately ravaged by nature.

My paintings and drawings are inspired from the hundreds of photographs of intriguing forms that I find in various junkyards. The raw materials that automobiles leave behind are reassigned when they become part of my paintings.

Through the art of metal casting, car parts are transformed and assigned a new function in cast aluminum, bronze, and iron.
