This work is a new direction for me and still very experimental it starts with a carved abstract pattern which I bury in layers of paint and glazes. I then scratch, scrape, and gouge until I reveal a found landscape. I am investigating different layering techniques; adding and subtracting, drawing, printing, overpainting, erasing and obscuring. The final result is the representation of process, the memory of effort, the consequence of exploration.
