Artist’s Statement

This is the finest piece of wood sculpture I have yet created. The workmanship required and overall design challenged all my creative and woodworking skills. I am quite happy with the result. The piece is warm yet crisp. It has a light, open, airy feel. The colors and textures are interesting, showcasing the natural beauty (everything is unstained!) in the exotic woods I used for the “rungs.” The piece hangs together to form a classic, rich piece of artwork.
