ABOUT “TRAVERTINE RIDGE”

1998

I was exhibiting at Ron Breeden's gallery in Orange when Ron introduced me to Don Cribb. I had previously made a small bronze maquette that I showed Don, who then showed it to the people developing the shopping center, and thru a series of interesting events became the the large piece.

This piece was my first collaborative work, involving the developer, visits to several stone quarries, a geologist, engineering, city planners, concrete fabricators, a large crane, and Chiarini Marble and Stone.
