statement

My drawings and paintings are time capsules with sparse content. I am exploring the way that I specifically find and retain information. The imagery is created by literally tracing information from materials such as photographs, newspapers, and audio files.  Although I begin with a very specific location, the imagery becomes obscured and abstracted. In creating the overall picture I begin to rely more on my own intuition, attempting to relate myself to the environment. It is both a mental and literal landscape.
