ARTIST STATEMENT

I adore printmaking, especially monotypes. I feel like it is totally my medium; I have control, but yet it is magically unpredictable. I love working in layers that somehow create the sense of time, and the sense of unreal. Color is essential; I want the color to overwhelm. Line is very important; I want it to be fragile and delicate and almost surreal.

Humor is an essential element in my work. I like to laugh at myself and at the ridiculousness of human nature, and I like the viewer to share this experience with me and have a good time. However, the sense of aesthetics is also important; I try to convey a certain sense of beauty and elegance in my work.

I think my art history background helps me a great deal. I constantly analyze and compare my work, and it’s almost like being engaged in self-analysis.
