My most recent prints reference my travels.  For a number of years I have recorded my daily travel experiences in a journal where I have diagramed the events of each day using marks and symbols. The diagrams capture where I went, what I saw, what I did, and impressions I formed. They can be read like a map.  Recently I began to incorporate my drawings into my prints.  Sometimes the events are clearly depicted and sometimes I layer drawings one upon another so that the days blur together just as my memory of a trip blurs the days. I enjoy this method of making art because I relive the events of my trips with each print.
