as a child, I would sit and doodle for hours, repeating simple marks over and over

the process allowed my mind to go to a more comfortable, a happier place

my childhood was about escaping

this work, in some ways, was also about escape

when I made marks the world around me stood still

i drifted off to some other place, an abstract place of visual imagination

these were safer places

the works began to grow, to multiply

take on a life of their own

maps

not normal maps

mind maps

maps of my thought process

maps of places I felt I had been, but had no recollection of going....
