             about my artwork  

 

Spontaneous Imagery: The terrains of the Inner Landscape have been the focus of my art work for the past 35 years.  The active meditation drawing techniques I use for approaching a dialog with my soul self, have served me well throughout these varied periods of my life.  My creative endeavors never fail to provide a safe harbor where my spirit can soar and I feel a boundlessly alive. 

Colored Pencil:Over the years I have come to love the immediate expressive quality of the colored pencil and value the fact that it is highly transportable, with little set up and clean uptime. 

My handmade books:Using various sizes and types of pre-made sketchbooks and markmaking media including colored pencils, has become a natural extension of the layering techniques I have used in my drawings.  The layering techniques have translated into pages that allow a migration through the images, as the pages turn, the images evolve and change.

My work in oil is a recent endeavor and a new love.  Now retired from a career as a high school art teacher, I have wonderful chunks of time to explore and experiment with it's possibilities.  Using this medium I have  tackled both realistic as well as abstract / energetic  subject matter.

Altered Photographs:Experimenting with digitally manipulating photos of my own work or simply interesting photos that I have taken has become a joyous exploration into color and design possibilities.  What an incredible vehicle for learning and resolving composition dilemmas.

Sculpture: .  I have created sculptures in both stone and clay medias, periodically,over the years.  Sometimes, when using clay I'll incorporating a hand thrown pot into the form.  My small stone sculptures are meant to be hand held and are usually abstracted animal or figurative, human forms.
