This original clay sculpture was inspired by artist Marilyn Levine's realistic approach to creating a material to look like something other than clay. Growing up as a child my grandpa was my hero and I alway have loved items from his generation.  This is a representation of a old wood box you may find in any grandpa's garage or shop.  I made the hinges look rusted and bent to show wear and age.  Look close enough you will see a missing nail head and a knot in the wood.  I have had multiple people try to open this clay box, but I had to explain it is 100% made from clay.

Art to me is a long process, a journey through materials and life. I don’t ever want to get stuck in one medium, concept or style, but rather let the material be approached by what needs to be created. As I grow older, creating for me has become more an emotional and spiritual process. I try to create through my own life experiences, not by only what I see, but what I feel. Inspirations, knowledge, and ideas change as my art evolves. I believe some of my best work comes from the imperfections, unplanned events, and through experimentation. I know that my future is unknown, and I like it that way. My goal is to continue to challenge myself, to think out of the box, and to bring my mark to the art world.
