In an effort to unhook my “Illustrator-brain” I turned to torn paper. After many years of working as a contract illustrator, I needed to take away identifiable imagery and all of the presuppositions connected to “issues” when creating my very own artwork.
Every new piece begins by diving straight into the colour and or feeling, with a wonderful dried flower or leaf. The work itself guides me. I belief myself to know what coloration or paper so as to add to every piece. I belief myself to know when every bit is completed.
Completely happy surprises happen typically on this combined medium, the trick is to at all times be current because the piece unfolds. The pure world is at all times current in my work.
The longer one lives with my torn paper items, the extra one sees. Your eye is consistently making new connections and patterns of motion.
There are many little surprises in all places ready to be found. These items are enjoyable, and playful, but, refined.
My aim? Pleasure.
