Since the mid-1990s, I have explored ways to visualize interior and exterior human connections though painting and drawing. Stylistically, my work is as abstract as the concepts addressed by it. Recently I began to enlist a variety of materials including ink and thread on raw canvas as a means to explore movement in time and space. My investigation of these concepts includes creating trails through landscapes, waterways, and mindscapes.
