Artist Statement: This was inspired by the treble clef symbol, my love of sailing and the shape of sails. However as the sculpture progressed I saw it also evolving as a flower, opening, releasing an evocative fragrance drifting on a gentle breeze.

So often we admire the plumage of birds but don’t appreciate the skills and the beauty of their choreographed acrobatic dance like movements in the sky. The graceful twisting, turning, diving and soaring movements are the inspiration for this sculpture.
Artist Statement: Graceful, unconventional lines are used in this sculpture to form volume and expression. Marrying the lines of the wing and the head of the Albatross to form a wave, defines the Albatross in harmony with its’ environment.

Artist Statement: The art of the Flamenco dance is one filled with emotion while capturing the expressive movements of the body and face of the dancer. While attending the concert ‘Flamenco Fire’ at the QPAC theatre, I was mesmerized by the dancers: the colour and movement of the swirling dresses and capes, the stamping of feet and the rhythm of the music.
