  • AWARDS AND HONORS

    • Member of the Board, Thomas Coke Works Project, 1997.

    • First full-time artist chosen to develop studio space at the former Republic Steel Works (1892-1972), Birmingham, Alabama. This historically significant facility is developing as an environment where artists of varied disciplines are restoring the buildings of Republic Steel to serve as studio space. My studio consists of the former coal testing lab and an adjacent rail car shed, which I fully restored in Summer, 1996. I constructed a metal melter, glass melter, burnout oven, annealers and casting ovens using primarily discarded materials and implements from institutional auctions.
