Artist's Statement
My most recent drawings and prints are the result of an ongoing relationship between my day job as a pattern designer and my contemporary art practice. Swirls, fades, dots, ric-rac lines are all parts of a larger decorative vernacular I'm using to address issues of style, class and sexuality.
