About the Artist
Over the years mediums used in Kevins art have ranged from graphite, charcoal, and ink for drawing, to paint, wood, various types of clay, stone, and metal. He has even worked in cake and modeling chocolate to create sculpture cakes for weddings.
Kevin’s art has always had a strong component of organic shapes and textures derived from nature, although many of his structural pieces are more minimalistic and straight forward in concept and design.

DESIGN
The first stage of a piece is design. During this phase multiple thumbnails are developed into detailed drawings which in turn are developed into prototypes. Once the final form is loosely determined fabrication begins. Kevin works mostly by commission, but sometimes offers up experimental projects for sale. Please visit often to see what might be available.
FABRICATION
Fabrication is the next phase in the construction of a piece. This stage consists of cutting raw material into the correct sizes and shapes, then shaping and forming them into the functional units that will become the finished work. These pieces are then joined together and the final form of the piece is realized. This stage can involve many different processes and media types.
FINISHING
The last stage of creation is finishing. This consists of all the detailed fine tuning of a project to make a finished piece. Welds are ground and finished, surfaces are prepped and patinas/paint are applied. This is often the most time consuming step in the whole process, but is also the most rewarding.
