Studio and Work

Observed, remembered, and invented structure has been a starting point for many years. The spatial characteristics and associations with architectural fragments, nature, and our bodies are at play in my studio.  I get many pots cooking at the same time, in order to be free of self judgement and doubt. In this busy, liberated state, I find the thread.  The resulting forms are familiar and unfamiliar, referencing things I feel, know, and/or remember, but with an open eye to including random occurrences in the studio, visual notes of abstractions from the world around me, and new experiences of composition. In the process, I try to stay open to taking risks and including humor.
