I've been drawing, painting and making prints for over 30 years, yet a common thread runs through the marks and gestures of all my finished pieces. I am fascinated how seamless this visual history appears despite how many years I've been a working artist. My current focus and body of work is collage that involves fragments of discarded intaglio prints, monotypes and drawings. The result is never ending hours of challenge, problem solving and pleasure as I attempt to make visual sense of these puzzle-like pieces, each with a different configuration yet sharing many elements with the entire body of work.
