Ink Paintings
My technique is an unusual combination of permanent pigments and repeated soakings in water. The entire drawing is completely immersed several times during the production process. Each image is then worked in both its wet and dry states.

Cities have a unique sense of place, and each building has its personality. I think of these drawings as stage sets waiting for actors.
Glen Echo Suite
These works pay homage to the legendary amusement park on the banks of the Potomac River. Partially preserved now as an art center, Glen Echos' heyday was between the 1920s to the 1970s.
