Along with being the current chair of the Art & Design Department, Jack is also the curator of the Lee E. Dulger Gallery located on SSC’s main campus.

“I have a broad based background. Initially trained as a functional potter, I gradually became interested in drawing and sculpture as an expression of clay and its relationship to art making. My large-scale figurative terra cotta sculptures draw inspiration from ethnographic art and mythologic archetype.”

“I make art like I cook. There’s a recipe and then you forget it, making do with what’s in front of you.”

“Art…cooking…life…teaching… it all blends within the form, the recipe’s lost, but reinvented.”
