In these hand-drawn and hand-sculpted scenic representations, I assemble thought forms from my paintings which can be viewed within a larger diorama. These sculptured figures and lifelike details are displayed in miniature dollhouse scale (1:12 scale) so as to blend indistinguishably with a realistic painted background. Spectators are encouraged to view the staged scenes in-the-round to experience the full psychodramatic scenes.
