Projects: I completed work on a large 11'6" x 4' bronze bas relief for Miami University's geology building representing south west Ohio's marine fauna during the Ordovician time period. I also completed work on a diplodocid dinosaur for the Children's Museum of Indianapolis as part of their renovated "Dinosphere Exhibit".
Location: hamilton ohio"Pliosaur" is a my sculpture from a day in the warm, shallow oceans of the Mesozoic in North America. A short necked pliosaur or plesiosaur pursues a school of fish around a rocky reef. Pliosaurs ranged in size from 4-15 meters in length with their appearance and size probably as variable as their diet. "Pliosaur" is made from cast bronze on a limestone base with a blue patina for the pliosaur and a more traditional brown patina for the rocky reef and school of fish. "Pliosaur " is 12"H x 14"W x 10"D.
