Artist Statement:
"I fell in love with drawing and painting in college and have over the years sought out artistic knowledge and experience wherever I could get it. I didn't necessarily set out to become an 'artist.' I just know that when I am behind an easel, I'm happier with a sense of my life holding together in a more integrated balanced way. I find this balance exploring the grid, enjoying the tension between the organic sensitivity and fluidity of the line as it intersects the more rigid and predictable horizontals and verticals."


About the Certificate Program:
The Washington Studio School Certificate Program provides students with a structured course of study designed to advance a student's ability and comprehension and equip graduates with an applicable mastery of the visual language. Intensive studio classes in drawing, painting, sculpture, and related subjects are supported by seminars in history, theory, and critique. Our Certificate Program is directed to those whose primary goal is the making of art.
