sketchmarks first body of brush and ink drawings spontaneously executed, then carefully torn, cut and layered into measured spaces applied to 15x15 inch sheets of 1/4 inch birch plywood
 

quiltbearings this body of mixed media pieces on paper and wood are busy with memories - of photography, film, improvised music and sculpture that draws in the sky - of great grandmothers' quilts and crocheted tableclothes - grandmothers' mending and making clothes, grandfathers' fixing and fishing - mother's paintings and letters - of dad's steel and prints - of the family and its histories - of codes, flashes and sketchmarks.
