My recent work is comprised of images taken from the surrounding environment, often by chance discovery, but sometimes by a more deliberate search of a particular subject. My goal is to create pictures of things that excite my artistic sensibility by the shapes, pattterns, colors, or textures that occur when viewed closely. A graphic composition results from focusing on a small area, encouraging a more abstract interpretation of my subject and offering the viewer a chance to appreciate it not only for the thing it is, but for whatever they might see it as.
My process includes taking multiple photographs of a subject, often returning at various times of the day to observe different lighting situations. I’ll then crop, manipulate, or combine pieces of similar photographs into a final composition that I transfer to paper and begin the drawing process, using the photograph as reference. My medium is wax crayon on paper or canvas, and my technique incorporates multiple layers of color applied with randomly shaped strokes to create a rich, textural effect.
