My Mind is a Micro-Dot Series


Listening to too much sixties classic rock lately.

Boredom is a Terrible Thing Series


Boredom, WTF?? Wow. A new title, a new mission, a new journey.

Love, Life, and Happiness Series


New title, so much for the "serial" mindset. I somehow feel at war with my internal motivations these days. More specifically, the battle is internal and is focused on creative motivations. I am pulling from the resistance that exists between a sense of blind romantic engagement, based in "feeling," and a sense of logic that suggests "duty and "responsiblity."

Circling Back - Body Drawing 9.17.07


I recently started a series of "Body Drawings," (Fall '07) that I make on the computer. All are 5" x 7." The drawings are digitally reproduced onto archival paper, drawn back into with ink, and encased in wax. I have been seeing more activity on my blog http://bodydraw.blogspot.com, which, to be honest, has me interested in them again. I title the drawings by the day in which I do them. It's part of the "serial" "surrendering to technology" aspect to this making this work. Ultimately, I see these drawings being translated into large scale works as both "devotional" and "effigial" to a bygone era.

PROCESS:
I usually listen to some classic rock music (Zeppelin, ACDC, OZZY) with my headphones on and channel the music through my body, into my hand through the mouse, and ultimately into the computer to be digitally translated and put back out into the world again.
