Artist Statement
My working method involves both digital means and traditional fine art concerns. Random elements and research material are programmatically combined using a digital collage technique of my creation. With these computer generated templates as a starting point an image evolves, serially, with printed matter being altered by subjective physical performance. This mechanism of production allows elements of chance (the voice of the medium) to co-exist with painterly choices.
