Artist Statement

I’m inspired by insistent patterns in the repetition and variation of shapes and lines in nature and the humanmade world. Though literal references sometimes seep to the surface, my work is fundamentally improvisational. Each move suggests the next. Having started my artistic life as a doodler, I like to begin with a few simple “rules” and develop the final piece by working inside-and then outside-patterns I’ve created. In the end I hope for harmony between happenstance and design, density and airiness, chance and calculation. More than anything else, I hope to glimpse the deeper design in the patterns I encounter.
