My drawing practise
I draw in order to see.
I want to see things more clearly, differently, to gain better understanding of surfaces,
form, contrast and space. It slows me down and stills my urgency to record and
develop ideas. Through the process of mark making I become physically and
emotionally involved with my environment. This connection is important because
it allows me to interpret what I see, to get beyond the immediate.
Drawing enables me to begin developing a visual language for
identity both external and internal. This is a life long growing cathartic narrative of how
I see the world and its objects; this is an extension of me. A visual story
revealing and mapping my life.
I find it stimulating, challenging, exciting and
frustrating. I cannot, not draw. I cannot create work without drawing, it
focuses and strengthens integrity. Drawing is about being raw, open and honest.
