Variations On A Theme – Page 24 – Creation, Process and Finish.

Variations on a Theme is a site dedicated to the exploration and study of my creative endeavors.
My work draws its influences from many things– the sanctum of nature and natural forms, the unconscious, mathematical and geometric patterns, cosmology, and eastern religious images. I try to incorporate these ideas into intricate patterns and iconic folk symbolism– using complex pointillism, repetition, and detailed line-work– with the hopes of creating a vernacular that is both meditative and pure in form.
