Artist Statement:
My work is primarily about the
investigation of the evocative
nature of line. Discovering
its abilities and limitations
to describe shapes, form, and
tone, poses a challenge that I
find highly stimulating. I am
interested in consistently
pitting graceful smooth
ribbons of line against strong
rough gesture marks, and
defining course bulky forms

constant objective is to
illustrate the delicate play
between chaos and order, while
consciously maintaining a
visual harmony and balance.
I draw my visual vocabulary
from nature. Specifically,
referencing images of
geoformations, caves, glacial
landforms, urban landscapes,
and delineations on facets of
bone surfaces, for their more
structural elements. For a
more delicate vernacular, I
draw from botanical and
aquatic life, subcutaneous
anatomy, and silky patterns in
nature, such as water and
smoke. Though I often use a
paint medium, the conscious
choice to keep my work in the
realm of drawing is important.
Drawing reveals its own
process, leaving a lasting
mark seen through transparent
layers of ink and paint. This
permanence in the drawing and

layers is an integral part of
each painting. In creating
these invented malleable
landscapes, I am continuously
