For the past few decades I have worked as a graphic designer.  Last year as a “free bird” I took my favorite parts of graphic design and combined them with acrylics, watercolor and printmaking, put them all into my head and tried to shake out a style. Oddly enough this venture into art has been overflowing a very real studio wastebasket with more fumbles, bad starts, mistakes, jittery drips and crashed concepts than I ever saw in the wastebasket icon on my design firm computer.

After two years spent trying to “loosen up” my work, I’ve decided to simply embrace the internal graphic designer and enjoy the colorful ride.
