The achievement of most of these 70's abstract drawings is that the wide array of intense notation and subtle gesture avoids the suggestion of representation. At times the marks refer to the surface of the various papers, with scraping and accumulation. At others even atmospheric effects and luminescence skirt suggestion by confusing ground and surface. The picture plane is negated and some works appear as holes in large vertical rectangles. But then, as if to show how easy it is, a room full of faint and blurry landscapes depicting the same suburban house with a curving path before it.
