Legacy
In this table-top size bronze sculpture a Veteran teaches his grandson about patriotism, valor, and respect, as they raise the American flag together.
With Eyes of Faith
“With Eyes of Faith” was commissioned as part of the Legends of the Grand Valley series and was installed in Grand Junction, Colorado in 2010.
The 1-1/4 life size bronze depicts Sister Mary Balbina Farrell who was responsible for raising money and overseeing the building of St. Mary’s hospital. In the sculpture, the young nun, dressed in a 1890’s era habit, sketches her design for the first hospital and gestures north to the location where St. Mary’s Hospital now stands at 7th Street and Patterson Road. With eyes of faith, she is sharing her vision of the future with a child who will be cared for, together with future generations, at the hospital. The 10 bed hospital opened in 1896.

Under Control
“Under Control” is about the camaraderie shared and the exhaustion experienced after fighting a tough fire, breathing canned air, feeling your way around a smoke filled building, and dragging hose lines or other tools of the trade.
This piece depicts two firefighters at rest after successfully getting a fire Under Control. One of the firefighters is standing, wearing a helmet and jacket open at the front.
The second man is sitting on the ground with his jacket and helmet next to him, with one arm on a knee and the other on his neck.
Having been a career firefighter, I experience empathy for the work and talents of professional firefighters.
