Over the last year, I have found various ways of expanding my daily drawing practice. The origins of my imagery are based in art history and by sourcing a range of early experiential discoveries: improvised music, handmade craft, ritual objects, elements of domestic space. I start with a grid and play with an adherence and subversion of patterns. I am studying color as metaphor and design as a strategy for invitation. From site specific paintings, textile fabrication and line drawing, I am most excited when my work can live both on and off the gallery wall.
