Drawings
2016 - 2020 selection
I am fascinated with and challenged by the blank page and create intentionally difficult problems in which I am forced to understand and deal with the rhythm of the space in unexpected resolutions. I fabricate systems in an organized, thoughtful manner, sometimes with glimpses of spatial ambiguity and often with grids and circles containing representative samples or swatches of color and meditative marks.
