Wide Angle On Nature as It Turns to Dust, continuing series, 2023
When I completed the two-part Drawing with Nature Series here and here, I started to clean up the table in my studio where I had collected the flowers and grasses and leaves for over a year. My intention was to crush everything into dust and return it to the earth. As I started to do…

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…

Black and White Twigs, 2022-23
In my pursuit of a consistent statement with the photograph above, which I believe to be one of the most powerful images I have ever photographed, I made 15 black and white images of groups of twigs that I grabbed from a pile that was not the aforementioned pile but a different pile of smaller…

False Screens 1 and 2, 2022-3

Drawing with Nature, 1 through 100, 2022, continuing series
A long while ago, I placed some flowers I was drying out on a table in my studio. On the table also were some sheets of paper I use to protect the drawings I do from any dirt that is on my right arm while drawing. On these pieces of paper, I sometimes make squiggles…

34 Branch Drawings, 2022
It took a year to determine how to use the thirty-four pictures I took of the drawing below. This drawing was so difficult to do, that is, imitating the image of an 8 x 10 photo of branches, that I took pictures moving across and down the drawing to ensure that I could retain the…

20 Twig Scans, 2022
Once I had created shapes out of the photographs of the twigs, by drawing around both the image of the twig and the shadow of the twig, I made scans of the original drawings so I could trace them for other sets of drawings. These are the first set of scans. Another group of scans…

20 Twig Photographs with Drawings, 2022
These pieces are another step in the process of building on the basis of my twig photographs in the creation of the Metaphysical Alphabet. These pieces are also framed and the reflections of my studio or me appear in the photos.
