I could probably finish this tomorrow. I’m looking at a book called “Drawings of the Masters: American Drawings” which is part of a series of books on drawing that I found at a library booksale. Thinking hard about what drawing means to me and what place it has in my work. There are drawings that I admire but have no desire to emulate, yet I have always wanted a certain ease of rendering that which is seen whether it is a building, a tree, or a musician. I have an idea to do some charcoal drawings of figures doing yoga poses on good paper. I need to work on getting some pictures- or using what I have. Hmm.. I could at least email a few yogis I know.
Still more…

My work deals with themes of human and nonhuman intelligence, and what it means to return home when the nature of home itself is nebulous and undefined. As an interdisciplinary artist with homebases in painting and printmaking, I explore the interstitial spaces between these and other media, relishing the borderlands–the slippage between idea and medium. Lens based ways of looking interact with a fierce love of materiality that echoes the earth itself, and the ways in which humanity interacts with the homeostatic systems that comprise Gaia, the living earth.
