Artist Statement
My interest in the multiple began with printmaking. My recent work examines the idea of the multiple in three-dimensional form. Some forms include imagery. I often use nontraditional photographic methods, exposing on hand made paper, either cast or formed wet sheets, with alternative processes such as liquid photo emulsion and non-silver chemistry.
