I am in humbled awe of the power of life to destroy and create itself endlessly. In most of my work, I am attempting to dialogue with this fracturing, displacing, churning cycle—devastation to re-creation—of natural life force.
My current works are landscapes of memory and dreams inspired by long drives on open road, along rolling terrain in all seasons. I use simple symbolic markings of trees and horizon line, scraped into printing plates, building the landscape mostly with layers of paper and colored inks in the printmaking process. Although I work in small series, carrying a theme through its natural evolution, each print in the series is unique and thus called a monotype or monoprint. All are created in the spirit of spontaneity, joy and love of natural forms and color harmonies. |
