My drawings are inspired by my love of many genres of music, and by visual artists such as Paul Klee, Wassili Kandinsky, Alexander Calder, and others. They are spontaneous - improvisations that tend to be fluid and symbolic, yet without specific intent, combining elements of abstraction, geometry, and musicality. This piece was made on handmade paper.
