“I want it to inspire people, with my artwork and story. When I started sculpting I was 23 years old and had very little going for me only a desire and a dream. I went to the local art store bought sculpting supplies and then to the library and checked out every book I could find on sculpting. Now 37 years later I had the privilege of being the 2015 Honorary Artist of the Buffalo Bill Art Show at the Buffalo Bill Center of the West and receiving the 2015 Wyoming Governors’ Art Award. The most important things I have learned on this road of discovery is never let fears keep you from pursuing your dreams. Do not let what you can’t do keep you from doing what you can do. So when you get knocked down just keep picking yourself up, do the best you can and always embrace the struggle.
