Drawings | 2010s

2017 | A series of small drawings, 4 1/2” x 6 3/4”. I have used making art as a way to deal with personally difficult times, in this case, facing the end of a second marriage. Sitting at a table, dedicating spare hours of the day doing something satisfying while thinking and not thinking about what is troubling; an ironic gift. Sweet, little and intimate drawings of colorful arrangements accompanied by some weighty titles. And though there is plenty of healthy catharsis in this process of art making, there was much beauty and love in those years being reflected upon. Drawings were done from February 1, 2017 to Feb 28, 2017 and are presented chronologically.

Step By Step Work 2019 | This group of drawings I did with the intention of just desiring to slow down some, take my time, be in a repetitive and meditative process of the simple act of one thing then the next thing. Going through some rough seas and wanting something that brought reasoned breath into the going. And, I like birds.
