“Drawing has always been the backbone of my studio practice. It is the place where ideas are generated, space and shape are explored and color relationships are introduced. My approach to the works on paper is fluid, immediate, and exploratory. When working on a new body of work, I hang the pieces in close proximately and frequently change their location on the wall. I am equally interested in the conversation that happens between pieces as I am with the conversation that happens within a piece. Some of the painting moments will seep into future sculptural pieces and others will be happy to remain in the two-dimensional world.”
