Cyanotype process used to record both the structure of a leaded window and a sublime value of transparency. Original stained glass panel created in 1991 reflecting on global issues at the time. This subsequent work on paper reflects the generative nature of the creative process.

Reflective journal and artist's book, a place to collage interests and findings whilst they wait to be discovered. This ongoing chronicle of explorations reflects the sense of "nowness" within the creative process. Most things lay dormant and waiting, their they remain encapsulated within the books fertile beauty.
