For as long as I can remember, Ive had a passion for words and images in equal measure. Stories written were always accompanied by drawings; visual works always contained text in some form. In the former, the visual component allowed me to share my interpretation of the words; in the latter, words added a layer of meaning, and further, the words themselves are an intrinsic part of the visual pleasure of the piece, whether one reads them carefully, or not. As such, my work has followed a parallel interest in the fine arts and publishing fields. With an enduring passion for words and the book form, my work nearly always exhibits elements of bookishness; whether the end result is truly a book, an altered book, a wall piece, or a construction, all contain text to be read in some sequential or looping fashion.
