Interview with Dennis Smith





After knowing Dennis for ten years it has been a privileged to walk around the sculpture garden with him. The war memorial sculpture garden is located in one of the most stunning sacred areas around Mt Shasta. The large metal figures stand in the desert on the north, surrounded by wilderness and wildlife. When the wind blows through them they come to life.

Before anything else Dennis and I are friends and his encouragement has always been wind in my sails. Now we have the chance to hear what his perspective as a US Marine and Fine Artist is. We discussed war, Giacometti, art and life.
