New 2017 Drawings using iPad Pro

Using an iPad Pro and "Procreate app for iPad", I'm creating drawings that start in my sketchbook and get finished on my iPad. 

It's an Experiment, an Exploration.

Using a bike tire as a material was inspired by a friends healthy obsession with tires that she picks up along the road. I believe that they are seen by her as metaphors.

New Cliche Verre, gelatin-silver prints

These contact prints are made from glass negatives which have been drawn and painted on, and stacked with internegatives and built-up imagery. After the completion of the glass plates, Diane Kreiter takes over and makes the gelatin-silver contact prints in her darkroom. We proof the prints and Diane makes exposure adjustments to bring them to the finished state.
