About the Artist

About the Artist: I think of my work as visual haikus. Haikus are Japanese poems consisting of 17 syllables arranged in a sequence of 5-7-5. Haiku poems evoke a sense of place or a time; they are not descriptions. In my work I strive to suggest, rather than display, a memory, a season, or a place. I use layers of textures and tones, creating ambiguous spaces, using ordering forms to maintain a calm, a repose. Haikus are enigmatic and intimate. The short, strict form makes a full narrative impossible. My prints, like the poems, are not about storytelling, but about the memory of a moment, or the fleeting glimpse, or reflections on a place.
