Previously Brian shared that his passion for his sculptures “is rooted in self-expression. Ever since I was a kid, I've struggled with verbal communication. So in a way, I feel like my sculptures do the speaking for me. Through my work, I can make a statement, or just convey an emotion, without having to say a word,” wrote the artist.

Brian also continued by explaining what keeps him going as a sculptor: "I see the improvement in the work I'm doing now compared to when I started 20+ years ago, even compared to 5 years ago, and it makes me wonder how much improvement there could be in another year, or five years, or ten years. I'm always striving to get better. I'm also motivated by the vast number of things I haven't made yet - I want to try making everything at least once!"

As challenges go, Brian shared that the most limiting thing is using only what he has on hand. “Sometimes I think about how much easier my job would be if I could go out and buy a specific piece I may need. Instead, if I can’t find that perfect piece in my piles, I have to make it myself.”

Every project Brian is on is his dream project. "Making art for a living was always my dream, so every project I get is a dream come true,” shared the artist.
