My work is abstract and is about process. I work primarily in the "color field" style and most of my recent work is either monotype or encaustic painting...both employ the art of layering. Printmaking lends itself well to the approach I take by layering many colors of ink on top of one another...often my prints are a result of 20-30 passes to achieve the depth I require. I hope that the prints are provocative. It is important that the viewer wants to return again and again. The subject is typically gathered from a photograph that I have taken... an architectural surface or a plane of color or colors from anything I shoot that is beautiful or interesting. I do not view my work as complicated but it is complex by the nature of the process of and completely conscious and methodical layering.

My larger prints are typically a large surface of a printed field of varying subtle colors to create a rich background surface. Then I print many small elements and collage them to the surface of the larger print.... another form of layering

ENJOY!
