Contemporary Works
For years I have joked that these designs
‘just fall out of my pen’ but in truth they
have a history and future unlike anything
else. More than 20 years of creating in
notebook margins, workbook blank space,
on bank envelopes, restaurant receipts and
notepads has lead to the form these designs take today. The ink from hundreds of pens has resulted in thousands of unique designs. While there are similarities as they come from the same hand, no two are exactly alike.
The beauty of this form is that each unique
'spark' is a potential greater work. Each design is used only once to ensure its uniqueness.
I have used the designs as models and inspiration for pieces comprised of paint on board, plaster, steel and wire, solder, wood compositions, modeling compound and etched glass. The ways to transform the designs are seemingly as endless as the designs themselves.
