Drawing Reconstructions
This series, Drawing Reconstructions,
is based on observations of organic processes within various landscapes. The connected rhythms of line, shape, and texture found in the veins of vegetation, layered striations of rock or atmosphere, and patterns generated by shifting paths of light, wind, and water are all sources for these works. During the drawing process, I seek out the underlying patterns in these subjects, and reconstruct them by bringing in my own associations through a particular color scheme or formal arrangement. In many respects, my working process parallels that of the use of the Mandala in certain traditions, where persistent, intensive focus leads to new growth and understanding through artistic practice.
