Artist Statement

I was initially trained by my father, a Sicilian artist and Renaissance man who had me pouring bronze when I was fifteen.  I spent many years working at the studio/school he founded in Manhattan.  Having access to the world's finest museums and galleries during the Sixties and Seventies when Abstract Expression had just lit the art world on fire had a tremendous affect on me.  My work spans the spectrum between figurative and the abstract, however, I adore the figure and find it shows up more often than not.  I like to think my work is as much science as art and I live for the experimentation.   Discovery of a new technique or method continues to excite and challenge me.  I believe the goal of a true artist should be that the learning process never ends.
