With an initial concept and visual in mind, each finished work
transforms from what I imagined or intended to express at the
start. I work in a series of layers, responding to each layer as I
consider how each decision would affect the already standing
parts and reconfigure each element’s existence and relevance.
Even the hidden layers are there, unseen by the viewer but
necessary and meaningful as it informs the subsequent layers
and had purpose at one point in the process. The work is
finished when it has thoroughly challenged me, excites me,
and sits well with me. However, as time passes, it may become
evident that it is no longer finished and that I must return to work
on it.
