sketchbook sample

i have to admit...i don't often sketch. i should because i need to focus more time in developing my work. sometimes i create little drawings or collages which i enjoy. here is an example...although i enjoy the top half of the drawing more than the bottom half.

First exposure

to the right is mousie mouse. he died january 4, 2003. i commemorated him with a series of photograms and a limited run of t-shirts and 1" buttons.






i recently created this design using a photogram of a bird from my halted migration series (recently exhibited at the thames art gallery, chatham, ontario). i will be producing t-shirts in the future.

an installation view of my work at the recent exhibition (october 24-november 5, 2005) dos semanas de los muertos at the artspeak gallery in windsor, ontario.

left to right : evidence (x-ray in light box); halted migration (photograms); untitled (taxidermy, cabinet, shelf); evidence and consolation (taxidermy, photogram, mixed media); the lungs of windsor's critters (skull, skeletized leaves, fabric, bees wax). halted migration was included in the 2005 juried exhibition at the thames art gallery in december 2005 and was awarded a juror's award.
