Barbed Wire Drawing

My preferred media is pen and ink, drawing the image first in pencil on crescent board and then creating the form using a quill. But first is the idea; "What am I going to draw that will shake the viewer up?" I love sarcasm and irony. I am the ultimate cynic. I believe the world has a dark side worthy of exploration. Through my work I try to point out the absurdity and contrasts of human thought. My pen becomes the tool I use to strip away the veneer of words to get to reality of the moment ... taking a point of view and illustrating it through it's opposite. People have been talking past one another forever. So, what is the truth? Through insight and stylistic accomplishment, I encourage viewers to speculate and interpret each piece through this prism.
