I utilize traditional and digital media techniques to embrace the dichotomy of the new and the old. These processes offer distinct qualities – one is constantly changing and the other a strong foundation for the principles. These may at times be in conflict and need to be negotiated through the assessment of values, but more often the duality offers a stable point of departure to foster further discovery. The process of drawing, layering, processing and printing affords time to contemplate the image as it is being made. It is for this reason I view my prints not as a whole onto themselves, but rather as storybook pages that precede the print to follow. The development of images is a process of expanding a continuing epic throughout the series that is not necessarily concluded with each finished print. Printmaking offers opportunities to contemplate and collaborate on imagery. I find that prints offer a means to contemplate social, political, and cultural elements. At times, the image making process reveals a plausible connection between intended and arbitrary subjects. The goal is usually not to develop a conclusive statement, rather generate a visual language using reference points and relationships that may be compared to each other as a narrative that becomes evident through the process.
