Artist Statement:
Art, graphic art, design,
digital technology, writing,
paying dues, sitting and
looking into friendly faces
and drawing a blank, color, oh
yeah, interesting color, color
field where I began as a
Pollack fan but not of the art
so much as of the man and his
choices – well right up to the
end anyway, then media, art
media and running the risk of
crossing the line, not sure
who put that line there, me, I
suppose… tools; pens, pencils,
graphite, watercolor, ink,
paint, scrappers, airbrush and
spray cans and cut out paper
and cardboard sheets, air and
glitter, rhoplex and the smell
of thirty year old liquid
plastic, resin and fluorescent
bulbs, skylight and slide
projectors, video tape
rolling, digital scanning,
digital painting, architecture
and the human form, snow and
ice, artifacts of
construction, abandoned
foundations, archival inks,
archival paper and here I am…
I’d rather create new work
than talk about work I’ve
created. Why is that? Seems
simple – let the work speak
for itself. Let the viewer
confront the work and deal
with it on their terms not my
terms. I can say that an image
is about xyz to me but then
that short changes ...
