I studied Fine Art as a mature student and enjoyed the complexities arising from simple mark making with graphite and paper.  This approach has expanded to stitch in relationship with surface texture.

I try to temper control of materials with unexpected, but welcome, ripples, folds and slumps.  Working becomes risky and unpredictable, reflecting the world as I see it. Reliable geometric shapes often find themselves in a state of disintegration or collapse.
