TRANSFER: HOW DID I GET HERE
The art in my series, “Transfer: a sSearch for Personal Place,” explores ideas of migration, exploration, and relocation; the pieces are born of my transient lifestyle. Imbedded in this work is the paramount symbol of economic development, the train, a vehicle that enables the transfer of ideas, cultures, products and people from one place to another. Collectively, my works define place as a living environment that evolves as people, ideas, and things are accumulated, experienced, and passed along.
Each final artwork, a balance of the abstract, the representational and sometimes the figurative, blurs the distinction between painting, graphic art, and digital modeling. My path to get “here” has been many things: purposeful and unexpected; carefully designed and blurred in my memory; designed and accidental. Its been a journey!
