Commissioned by the State of New York Parks Department and installed at the entrance of the Hudson River Park on the lower west side of New York. Design and inspiration for this piece was to greet all that came visit the park.

This disk was commissioned as a site specific art installation for an individual artist, Warren Rosen. It was produced in the middle of a forest for no one to stumble upon except for Warren. He wished to watch the disk’s life evolve each day. The disk was photographed daily until it was only a few inches thick with numerous holes creating negative space. The process was a patient and uncommon experience to be a part of.

After creating the first disk I always felt compelled to produce another. The opportunity arose once again in Vail this time with a different and special relationship. This disk was a three-dimensional piece welcoming all that passed through the Covered Bridge to Vail.

A colossal undertaking created for the Lillehammer Norway Olympics in 1994. After first producing the piece in foam to get an accurate model it was then sculpted in ice and seen by millions of viewers during the winter games.

Encased in ice, the Dodge Nitrox served as the launch of an advertising campaign for Dodge.

This model was produced at his studio as a study for "Verdant Meadows" commissioned by Art in Public Places, Town of Vail, Colorado.
