Everything in life demands to be a certain scale; only within that scale does life find fulfillment. A tiny Chihuahua dog and an African elephant are both their perfect scale, and each commands its own inherent dignity.

Just as the arrangement and proportion of form changes as life-forms increase in size, so too must sculpture undergo changes with larger scale. Ideas and concepts also have their unique scale - from the "passing fancy" to the "million dollar" idea.

It is not enough for the sculptur to simply enlarge a smaller work. He must first make sure that his concept has the power and presence to aesthetically function in a larger size. A Chihuahua created the size of an elephant would remain simply a large Chihuahua.

When an idea is created in the perfect scale to match its presence - great art is born.

Fine monumental sculpture should feel as if it grew on site, that it has always been there, and always will be. Its size and presence stimulates a response from the viewer that is akin to that experienced when seeing a beautiful mountain or a magnificent landscape.

Just as a mountain seems to change with every season, monumental art constantly presents a different light and shadow pattern.
