I have had an obsession with faces for over 40 years.
I have drawn them, painted them, photographed them, and now I have them in metal. The ones that intrigue me most are the faces of many generations of my family members. These pieces are a composite of many years of working with familiar faces.
This is what comes out when I close my eyes.
