I use beeswax and found objects to create artworks with a sculptural and luminous quality.

While in Paris for Art Basel 2025, I checked out The Pinault Collection’s exhibit “Minimal” at Bourse de Commerce. What a phenomenal show plus this giant wall of raw beeswax was WOW! I could make a lot of art with that!
