"Opening my innermost mind to the visions not yet seen is ecstasy beyond words... to observe my hands molding metal into form and shape as if it were a massage... to watch it being textured and ground as if it were the Fourth of July... to cast paint and finish on the art is as if it were a dance. Watching someone tilting their head, moving back, moving forth, and walking around to see it from all sides."
