My work is rooted in the practice of automatic drawing, starting without a plan and letting the piece evolve intuitively. My first drawing was on a drumhead—silencing my mind and letting my hand move. I approach each new piece this way, allowing intricate lines and shapes to build into rhythmic, dimensional structures. As a drummer, I feel beats and rhythms in my body more easily than I can read them, and that sense of motion finds its way into my drawings: the flow between forms, the tension between order and chaos, the pulse that moves the eye without moving the page.
Working exclusively in black ink on paper, I focus on the basic elements of shape—dots, circles, curves, straight and angled lines—letting the contrast define space and structure. Each drawing becomes a sort of meditation and a way for me to step away from the noise of my brain and the world. Viewers usually find their own pathways through the work, discovering different images or stories. I love that the experience is never the same twice. These drawings are a space for reflection—for me, and for anyone willing to step inside.
