This drawing on paper is mounted on gator board and includes a mat. Therefore it is stiff and cannot be rolled to mail in a tube. So it will mail flat in a sturdy box or a crate. It can be hung as is, without any plexiglass in front, or put in a frame of your own choice. It has hung in this way without plexiglass, in a gallery, with no problem. This drawing looks like a painting. It is very dense with many layers of color pencil. It took almost three months to complete. The paper is Legion archival rag, professionally mounted on gator board. It has hanging loops on the back. It could be framed later but it is safe regarding flaking because it has been sprayed several times with finishing spray which protects the surface. It recently won second prize in a juried show, the juror being the executive director of the Sarasota Art Museum. The theme is our changing natural environment. The composition is totally from my imagination. I want to create a sense of wonder and curiosity about what earth's furure may hold. My intention is to create a composition of beauty which invites the viewer to have the desire to enter into this fascinating landscape.

My work does not conveniently fit into a category. There are elements of abstraction and glimpses of "reality". One might guess at surrealism, but I do not think of my work as such. My objective is about taking a fresh look at the traditional landscape. By using this familiar format, a dialogue is created between the viewer and the image. The brain always attempts to organize the lines, shapes and colors it perceives; with no easy reference point, there may be no connection. A recognizable arrangement even though out of the ordinary begins the communication. Born 1949, New York City. U.S.A.I have been an artist since childhood.I consider that the best is still ahead of me. It is my identity. I draw, paint and sculpt. For more than a decade now, my subject matter in art has been based on theories of a futuristic world. All my work has originated from or related to, cast off objects and recycled materials. My first major drawing on paper series, begun end of 2008 into 2009, The Peripheral World (or Peripherals), was first inspired by thrown away paper tissues, and creased papers. I am currently working on my most large and complex pieces to date.
