To me the challenge and joys of creation are equally related to visualization and execution. My approach requires understanding and executing the entire process of sculpture, which should not be hindered by technical incompetence or a need for outside help. Whether the work involves stone or woodcarving, welding or metalworking, structural integrity or the choice of textures and finishes, the sculptor must know the process."
