My interest is in human environments and their various effects on the people who live within them. These drawings allude to the vibrancy of New York City. Such an environment embodies the uncompromising, rigid and dense space found in no other area of human habitation. The facets of existence in such a place offer broader experiences for its inhabitants in finance, culture and in many other spheres. These act as a magnet for the entrepreneur, businessman, banker, theatre-goer and people interested in the arts. Among the attractions of living in a city are its anonymity and freedom and the many opportunities it offers.Ezra Pound said, '(Is) New York the most beautiful city in the world? It is not far from it. No urban nights are like the nights there. I have looked down across the city from high windows. It is then that the great buildings lose reality and take on magical powers. Squares and squares of flame, set and cut into the ether. Here is our poetry, for we have pulled down the stars to our will.'
