Artist Statement:

Printmaking has allowed me to bring contemporary appeal to my works on paper. Within my work there is a combination of both expressive and representational imagery. Each hand pulled print is composed of several layers of ink, creating rich textural qualities contrasted by structured and spontaneous forms. The exploration of metropolitan life has been the focal point for my latest impressions. Within this imagery the concept emerges, empowered with a sense of vitality. The metropolis lifestyle represents change, growth, and regeneration, symbolizing the past, present, and future. It is a visual sanctuary for my mind to wander, uncovering fragments of its substance and an infinite amount of inspiration.
