Artist Statement

As someone whose artistic expression is firmly based in drawing, I find that printmaking,
especially intaglio, provides me with the widest range of tools for my needs.  I can be
precise and controlled in my etchings and mezzotints, concentrating on the graphic
quality of these techniques. To compliment these, the monotypes are more fluid, allowing
the brushwork and color to define the image.  
My still life images use everyday objects, most often using glass for its distortions and
reflections and combining these qualities with plants and pattern.  My interest is in depth
and light so sometimes I push the depth of the object against its background and other
times I'm more interested in blurring the figure-ground aspect by playing with the pattern
of shadows, objects and background as surface pattern.
