"My practice consists of painting, sculpture and works on paper, all of which at times derive

inspiration from note taking drawings.
It always amazes me how quickly such banal and inert materials can respond to activation.

Whether a work takes off quickly or slowly towards a resolute artifact. I see my task as coaxing and responding like a supervisor trying to comply with the characteristics of my medium and the inherent structures of the works theme. All this is done in an attempt to guide the piece into some essential causality that can disclose a critical circumstantial theme." - Larry Graeber
