Drawings

Almost all of the work I do begins as drawing. For me, drawing is more verb than noun. It is process rather than product. I enjoy drawing. The act of drawing is an immediate, satisfying and challenging endeavor. It is a way to see the world and consider the many wonders surrounding us. It is a way to record observations, moments, ideas and beauty. Drawing is not only recording ideas, moments, places, players but an intellectual pursuit questioning what is seen, felt and thought. The vast majority of my drawings are in sketchbooks, quick ideas or sights that are more phrases and aphorisms than complete thoughts. I'd love to pursue many of these sketches further in other materials and in a more finished form, a painting, print or sculpture. I believe as the artists of the Italian Renaissance believed, that drawing is the basis of all the arts.
