Artist Statement

I have always worked from life, and my subject matter has ranged from the human figure, to insects, to doodle-like imagery.  Presently I am most interested in the intuitive and almost subconscious process of creating collages.  For me this is a complex process of selecting papers by color, size, texture, and shape and overlapping them into a unique form.  Since 2017 I have completed hundreds of collages, and continue to be challenged by the infinite possibilities, color juxtapositions, and spatial surprises.  My most recent prints are an extension of this process using a variety of relief mediums, polyester plate lithography, and collagraph printmaking techniques.
