Among the sculptures in this category are several considered “trompe l’oeil” (French for “deceive the eye”). These were inspired by forms that surround our quotidian, commonplace world–inanimate, utilitarian objects that the imagination transforms into whimsical, artful companions. As in all my sculptures, simplicity of form is primary.
