Commercial Fishing Days
New work from this spring, 100 sumi ink drawings from my days commercial fishing in Alaska. These were all people I fished with and boats I fished on. The salmon boat was the Marvel, my own 32" troller.The Longliners were the schooner Arrow and the Memories. Sumi ink, 3" x6", some collaged surface with old navigation charts.
Artist Statement
I like all areas of art, doing everything from portraits, figurative work, collage, monoprints, pastels, plein air painting, and Abstracts! It is great when things cross over from the abstract universe to the real world, a wonderful synthesis. Above all I am colorist and I believe in strong drawing skills at the basis of all my work.
