       Artist Statement

The prints pictured here are part of a new series of work inspired by my travels. The marks represent my activities and impressions as I record them in my travel journals in the form of pictographic diagrams. The diagrams contain symbols and marks that are loaded with personal meaning that trigger rich memories of my travel adventures.

I have had a long time fascination with the mark making and pictographs of cultures that use symbols in their written forms of communications including the indigeous people of the American southwest, the Picts of Scotland, and pre-historic communities throughout Europe. Other influences in my work are the art of Paul Klee, Joan Miro, Mark Tobey and Antoni Tapies as well as theories of Rudolf Arnheim as expressed in his book, Visual Thinking.
