I have been drawing since I was a child, but ended up playing music pretty seriously for 20 years, and came back to art more, as I knew I would, though music is still a very good friend. I do mostly drawings, black and white pen and ink and digital pen (in Microsoft Paint, chosen for rawness, as ‘digital etchings’) and large, detailed oil pastel drawings. The over all theme that seems to pull me in is urban life, its juxtaposition of wealth and poverty, and human emotion within and outside of walls. I suppose that is why there are many bricks present. Human technologies that last centuries unchanged, as do bricks and walls, fascinate me. My main influences are Edward Gorey, Robert Crumb, Maurice Sendak and Edvard Munch. |
