His youth on the Chesapeake Bay and years in rural Western Maryland refined his interest in nature as a subject matter. These forms providing an arena where content can exist between representation and abstraction with multiple levels of reference and association. His images are meant to provoke experience and transcend the immediate object. In keeping with print and drawing media, this motif provides enigmatic images on a primary level that become complex due to the direct characteristics of line and surface. With this focus specific concerns with memory content reflect a more immediate visual record of experience.
