These are limited edition ink jet prints on paper. I draw directly into the computer using a drawing tablet. I print with archival quality inks and papers using an Epson 9500 large format printer."My attitude is the same in computer-based work, and drawing and painting using traditional materials. Nothing is predetermined. The process of drawing leads to discoveries in content and imagery. I rely on spontaneous decision-making and 'gut reaction' responses throughout the creative process. This subjective approach has its own rhythm and non-linear logic and channels the operation of my intuitive actions. This process includes experimentation, speculation, and referencing my previous work in
sketchbooks, drawings and paintings."
