This ongoing body of work is based on extracted and manipulated graphics and texts from 1940's and 1950's photographic, fashion model guide books and educational materials. By re-presenting these dated materials, the inner rhetorical workings of industries, such as that of photography or etiquette are amusingly pointed to. They are about the construction of beauty � literally and the construction of meaning.
All the work uses the two elements of text and image to evoke third associations that result in an often humorous, larger meaning.

Drawing has begun to be regarded as a new medium unto itself, meaning that it is no longer a precursor to The Painitng but rather a seperate medium.
Coming from photography based work and installation, I started makign drawings in 2004. These drawings are conceptual drawings.
