The layering of texts and imagery (from Lewis Carroll's works) with nets of gesture in innumerable qualities belies the word picture in these drawings and paintings that both look familiar and seem more complicated than we remember. Some of the undulating lines, which penetrate the atmosphere between layers of notation, suggest foliage, elsewhere a web, or something more ethereal, abstract, or metaphysical. In the oils, the use of impasto adds an almost impossible depth to works of such graphic excellence (that a digital origin might be suggested). The effects of harmonious color schemes lull but refuse to ground apprehension.
