Artist Statement

Drawing is a way of synthesizing my response to current events.  It allows me to reach out and communicate in a cryptic language rather than a literal one, so that those who might pick up the impulse, can if they wish, reach back and respond.

Ink flows onto paper in an organic rather than penciled-in-first fashion.  Listening is required in order to transcribe the impulses that direct my mark-making.  Elegance and simplicity in line and materials, offer a framework in which to create.

To make a connection with another person is the goal.
