Artist Statement for the Drawing and Prints show:

I made a series of gouache and ink drawings while I was in residence at the Pouch Cove Foundation in Newfoundland. I stayed in a fishing community, surrounded by the cold Atlantic, where whales, nets, seabirds and mysterious forms would arise from the fog each morning.
