Portfolios

Through material and process, I work to make sense of my experience. I use old media like egg tempera and the venerable oil paint alongside the laser engraver and digital tools of my own creation.

Selected portfolios:

  • Ellipsis Interrupted
  • Drowning in the Cloud
  • Taut Twine & Tin Cans
  • And This Our Measure

It would be a mistake to ascribe this creative power to an inborn talent. In art, the genius creator is not just a gifted being, but a person who has succeeded in arranging for their appointed end, a complex of activities, of which the work is the outcome. The artist begins with a vision — a creative operation requiring an effort. Creativity takes courage.

— Henri Matisse
