Calaxia Drawing

It terrifies me to show my work to people. It terrifies me to talk to people. I find it very hard to connect to people, maintain relationships and converse with complete strangers even though I want to connect. I need to find a thread that allows me to believe I’m not alone. I need to be a part of the human experience. I need to be validated. My art fills the need to connect, create and share. I am interested in the abstract, something that doesn’t make its story obvious. Mystery is engaging and obvious is boring. My art must be more than just a pretty picture, composition or form. It must not be realistic, a defined thing, recognizable object or place. My art must connect with more than just random markings. It must formulate the abstract into my story. My process starts from scratch with no predetermined concept, composition or state of mind. Each mark is committed because it is not erased. My obsession with detail tries to maintain some sort of control over the experience. My work takes on organic forms, textures and patterns. Dots, scratches, hatches and lines fill space with strong contrast, gradations, tones and fear spanning the composition. The finished form is often ink drawing on paper, acrylic paint on canvas or digital work printed on paper. Abstraction, controlled expression, pointillism and biomorphic may be some ways to describe my work. I am terrified to connect, but I hope to share with others my story and find a universal connection that tells us we’re not alone.
