Working out some stuff in my sketchbook. Perhaps an oddball combo/permution of recent themes: tree, frame, buildings. To be continued...

Two small samples in some vintage photo mats as a small step to getting back to work. I’ve been struggling with debilitating political angst…maybe you have been, too.

I felt better after calling my senators and getting out my glue stick.

[from a recent IG post] Small studies made with the conceptual/poetic filter “Remembering Trees.” It's a little beautiful but mostly apocalyptic…made with the yellow smoke-filled skies of last summer in mind.

I love the idea of a souvenir as a concrete token of memory. 8 framed photographs of letters made from twigs and copper wire. Part of an ongoing exploration of "remembering trees."
