  • Where some may see flat, static narratives, I see a spectrum of tonal gradations and realities. What I am creating is literally black portraiture with ballpoint pen ink. I'm looking for that in-between state in an individual where the overarching definition is lost.

From there, the possibilities of portraying a fully-fledged person are endless.

Repeat this procedure until I hate the very meaning of every word I know.

Learn to observe and analyze swiftly, wherever you are.

Then someone gave me a word processor and I was amazed at being able to fit ten pages on one of those floppy discs.
