Biography

“At its best art practice is an activity of quiet excitement. In my case, drawing with a pencil or and ink pen on paper is very quiet. The excitement is generated by unexpected discoveries. These are most often the result of careful seeing, together with the use of chance as an agent in art production. A series of drawings with a single source allows for an extended exploration."
