ARTIST STATEMENT: My work can simulate music in its movement/rhythm and harmony within structure and color schemes. Others reflect something felt visually. The manipulation of old magazines, books and image sources allowed me to pull my media from other peoples' recyclables which inspires resourcefulness and an excitement of creating something from that which has lost its intended value. Most of my collages are made up of several hundred separate pieces of paper with carefully chosen image, color and structural properties.
My other favored medium is pencils. I prefer portraits because the subtle beauty of facial expression is endless because of our acute sensitivity to it.
I will also combine media and create digital images
