This body of work comprises itself of a series of random interactions and gestures, with no preconceived idea of what should exist beforehand. Working in the moment, layers of wax are built up with time and subtracted with heat, which integrates the wax and paper. In this fusing process, portions of the paper become transparent and new lines may appear as the melting wax moves with the heat. Wax may also obscure the drawing with its opacity. Graphite powder is rubbed into some drawings, which continues the obstruction of the original gesture.
Throughout the process the painting is a dance - a reaction or non-reaction to line and movement organically created by the materials. The simple interaction of gravity and gesture, reaction and non-reaction is what ultimately creates the image.
