My Work


My art is mostly graphite pencil drawing and is mostly studies of texture, both large and small. Of late, I have started experimenting with Silverpoint, but my focus on textures with this medium remains much the same.  With my focus on texture, there is little restriction on subject matter.
With the attention to texture I try to produce pleasing images that focus closely on the subject without clutter or distraction and draws the eye to observe the detail. Along with the ability to create the very fine detail, I like the stark contrasts that can be achieved with pencil.
I have always been fascinated by textures, especially in the natural world – decaying wood, dead leaves, rocks, sea shells even peeling paint and broken glass,  My fascination with texture and its representation in my drawings has lead me to observe the textures of the world in more detail, finding interesting subjects in unassuming places
