Artist Statement

Art saved my life. For 900 days straight, I made a monotype without fail never missing a day. I worked from my studio, from hotels, and even from the hospital. When this Monotype of the Day Project began, I was in a great deal of pain. I was literally wasting away on a liquid diet. By the end I was eating solid food and able to resume many activities. Work created during this period confronted my own disabled body marred by the rare autoimmune disease Scleroderma, exploring how the physical body both constrains and enables creativity. I delved the inner life of an artist, asking what is means to create and where creativity comes from all while experiencing the fundamentally healing nature of the creative process.

My artwork is coxed from silence. By listening deeply I connect with the generative creative flow that permeates all creation. My life’s work is to explore and reveal how this creative energy passes through our world transforming everything it meets. The monotype form is the perfect medium for this because allows an immediacy, the ability to translate messages, images, and feeling directly onto the plate before the judgmental mind can filter an artist’s purest impulses.
