ABOUT

Artist Statement

Let me start by admitting that in most cases, when I read an Artist Statement I usually find myself asking "why?". I often begin reading the statement thinking "I wonder why they do what they do?", but somwhere, usually shortly after I begin reading what I'm reading, I begin to wonder "Do they actually believe this nonsense?", "Do they expect me to believe this nonsense?" and finally, "I wonder where I can get a glass of wine?". So, I'll try not overintellectuailze my concept, baffle you with metaphysics or offend you with feigned angst and anxiety over choosing the right piece of newspaper . (You're welcome.) My deal is quite simple. I love the creative process. From the acquisition and reading of old Rolling Stone newspapers and the subsequent intuitive discovery of text and imagery available for play, to the analytical process of planning the piece and the concurrently invigorating and meditative aspects of the execution of the piece, to the satisfaction of completion and presentation and finally, to the pleasure of meeting you, I thoroughly enjoy what I do. I hope you do as well. Enjoy.
