STATEMENT<\/strong><\/p>\n

In many ways my work is about the process. I have an idea and I give myself specific tasks to complete. Most of my work uses multiple canvases or panels. And, although the pieces are 2D, I consider each piece as an object. The sides of the canvas and the width of the canvas or panel are important elements of each piece. In many of the pieces, I use gold paper or gold leaf. The gold gives the piece an aura and the pieces glow when the lit from above. (This idea is hard to capture in one straight-on photo.) The number of objects used to make up a single piece lends to the meaning.<\/p>\n

Communication or communicating is a theme in my work especially in the collages. I use words, numbers, and symbols to give visual hints. Morse Code is an important element in many of my pieces. Morse Code\u2019s geometric shapes add beauty to the work, but it is also a universal way of communicating and gives the viewer something to decipher. What I\u2019m trying to convey in a collage may be encrypted or may be nonsense.<\/p>\n
