Order Ink on paper
The design stemmed from my recent thoughts on order and organization - two things I struggle with and don't really love. What I do love is being outside to enjoy nature, and so I began comparing the two. I recognized that the reason I like getting outdoors, beyond blowing the stink off of me, is that it seems open and free and somewhat random. But as I thought about it more carefully, I realized that so much in nature is actually pretty structured. I decided I would create something to reflect the organization and patterns in the natural world.
The resulting piece is a juxtaposition of precise patterning created from less precise, shapes and lines that give the work character beyond its structure.

Cellular Kaleidoscope
My recent thoughts on cells and the fact that they work both individually while at the same time while interacting with other cells was the idea behind this piece. I tried to allow each "cell" work individually while also working with those surrounding it. 1
