“Drawing has long been my primary vehicle of artistic expression. Drawing always shows the tracks of creativity, it’s immediacy and directness has kept me a devotee. I like making drawings that are larger than my own reach; the immersive aspect of large scale, the sense of being engulfed in the work, is an attraction for me.The work here represents 3 themes that have dominated my work for the past 2 decades.  One is about monuments or memorials; how they stand against time (i.e., as compared with our own lives or the ephemeral nature of a reflection in water) as well as how we create them to assuage our own longings, regrets, etc.  Another theme, Visionary landscapes, pays homage to artists whose work is at once regional and visionary in character, such as that of Charles Burchfield and Samuel Palmer, and to the purpose of reiterating the argument of “natural religion”, that nature herself is the clearest evidence of God. The final gallery consists of Biblical themes, reminding us that everything that needs to be known is in those pages.”
