I work by topic. One set of works on paper shows the emotional side of war and was generated from interviews with veterans and refugees. Another concentrates on industry that is still in operation in the United States. I do not take a political stand although viewers often do in reaction to the work. Periodically I return to my original topic: “People You Know” where people may pull each others hair from time to time, but love remains.
