• Loops, marker and colored pencil, 2014

  In 2014, I seemed to have been relishing in the representation of my work by Cross MacKenzie Gallery. Therefore, I neglected to photograph many drawings. The three groups below are among them. The media for the first group of four are silver marker and putty beige colored pencil. They are each ten inches square. The…

• Grasses 1, 2, 3, 2021

  These drawings manifest a turn from concentrating on drawing images of trees which occupied me for a while. I foraged through my Instagram images of grasses that I took on my Sunday walks in Worthington, MA to choose subjects for these three drawings, which are, in themselves, abstractions of the photographs. All of the drawings…

• Corners Series, 2008

  The concept of these drawings germinates once again in minimalism, the non-objective, and self-referentiality. Self-referentiality was and is, for me, a mainstay in an artist’s orientation in approaching any work at all. Configuring it is a means to appreciate the process as it goes forth and increase the artist’s mindfulness of the direction of the…

• Four Panels, Mountain and Branches, 2021

  These panels reflect my new environment. The mountain “lines” represent the Berkshires in MA. And the branches images come from a template I made of a drawing I did of a branch broken off a dead tree/bush once planted outside my door. The incorporation of the drawings into the panel format demonstrates the influence of…

• Healing Quilt Series 1-9, 2006

  This series of drawings is one of the best explanations of my process coming out of using arc templates to create shapes, characters, and language. I did these after I did the three large Healing Series paintings. They are actually drawings for nine paintings. Each small square was intended to be 10 inches by 10…

• Untitled Drawings, 2012

  These drawings have no meaning. They are mere vehicles to move the colored pencil around the paper in a fairly uniform way. They are all small, maybe 9 inches by 8 inches. A contrast to the large black and white drawings also executed in this year.

The first layer is acrylic and forms the background. The second layer traces the shapes left by the dripping paint with permanent silver marking pen. The last…
