I have always appreciated detail in objects. I grew up in an era obsessed with Star Wars and the “magic” of the miniatures used to create it and other movies of the seventies and eighties. For as long as I can remember I have felt a need to create objects with repetitive elements and attention to detail in homage to these childhood memories. In the creation of these objects I can approach the “play” of childhood and shut out the din of the responsibilities of adulthood.
