For two decades I've been building a database of incidental images I've found when combing through tiny details in my monotypes.  These works begin at the intersection of chance and intention.  I start with a single mark or section of a monotype as the foundation for discovery. Monotypes have long been a staple of this process and themselves are reservoirs of ideas that play into nearly every body of work.   This point of departure, which starts with a single mark or imprint as the foundation for discovery, yields textured topographical imagery. Otherworldly landscapes reveal objects and mysterious figures, inviting settings for potential narratives, as they have provided the material for all of my animation work. These details act as “oracles” as I call them, guiding the meaning and subject matter, as I create and intuitively discover my work simultaneously.
