In the Beginning

In brief:
At Maryland Institute, College of Art I mostly made video installation and sculpture. I used a lot of plastic epoxies and enjoyed transmuting materials. For example, putting resin on soft creamy silk makes it transparent and brittle. Beyond undergrad, I continued experimenting with materials and formats in 3-dimensions, and kept a studio in Eagle Rock. I moved away from toxic methods (resins, etc.). Instead, I used natural materials from the surrounding environment and home craft techniques. I made things like sand sculptures.

Throughout it all, I continued to make hundreds of quirky and spontaneous drawings.

And So it begins...

Let's start from now and work backwards. I've taken on the formidable task of creating, in one days time, a general blog archive of my work from the past few years. And you thought I couldn't do it... ;)

victory!
