I am an architect turned builder turned remodeler turned furniture maker turned functional artist turned public artist. My prime motive is to awaken and make viewers think about their lives and their environment. I have worked in a multitude of media and at a range of scales varying from residential subdivision creation to small religious artifact design and construction.
My work has included the design and construction of numerous custom homes and the design and construction of a 42 lot subdivision. My approach to this work has always been to seek invention but respect convention. Recently the work has been more design and build of residential remodels.
Concurrently with that work by my own company, Silverwood Builders, I have pursued work in a variety of other independent areas:
2 patents for new home improvement products
artwork for visual merchandising in retail spaces
artwork for corporate spaces
studio furniture
functional artwork of home decor products
design of a new line of sports equipment
revision religious artifacts
public art projects
