"My
work is created intuitively. I begin by simply taking a line for
a walk and allowing an image to develop however it wishes. I like
being surprised by images which manifest over time as I apply
simple materials to a simple surface. The images I create do not
have any absolute meaning or narrative, and I have no goal when
I create something other than to entertain myself through its
creation, but at the same time, I feel that an image is only successful
when it evokes a sense of mystery. An image is complete when I
feel I have exhausted the possibilities of the surface and transformed
it into something a little bit magical, something which even the
most casual viewer can appreciate as a well-crafted object."
